Answer:
10% of 60 = 6
25% of 60 = 15
50% of 60 = 30
20% of 60 = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the expression that is equivalent to 8a + 20, all you have to do is find the common denominator and divide the values by it.
8a + 20
8a/4 + 20/4
4(2a + 5).
The correct solution would cue the second option - 4(2a + 5).
The answer is -1.01
I first changed the signs of the ones i could. So <span>-0.75+(2/50)+0.4(-3/4)
Then i multiplied the 0.4*-3/4 which equals -0.3
So you are left with </span><span>-0.75+(2/50)-0.3
2/50 is equal to 0.04 so now it is </span> -0.75+0.04-0.3 and the rest is simple math. Which equals -1.01
Answer:
14 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equations can be solved for y by substituting for x. The first equation is convenient for writing x in terms of y.
<h3>Solution</h3>
x = 20 -y . . . . . . . subtract y from the first equation
7(20 -y) +5.5y = 119 . . . . . substitute for x in the second equation
140 -1.5y = 119 . . . . . . . . simplify
21 = 1.5y . . . . . . . . . . . add 1.5y -119 to both sides
14 = y . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 1.5
14 pounds of soy nuts should be used in the mixture.
