Answer:

a) 20

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the kg of 0.700 grade silver, then:

Silver in ingot + silver in 0.700 alloy = silver in 0.750 alloy

10 + 0.7x = 0.75(x + 12)

10 + 0.7x = 0.75x + 9

1 = 0.05x

x = 20

If the sale price is $40 and the discount is 25%, what is the original price?
sveta [45]
Use this equation to solve the problem:

x - (x * .25) = 40

This equation is saying the original price times itself by 25% is 40.

x - (x * .25) = 40
Simplify.
x - .25x = 40
.75x = 40
Divide both sides by .75.
x = 53.33

The original price was $53.33

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

y= -2/3x+490

slope: -2/3

y-intercept: 490

Step-by-step explanation:

Y-intercept form is y=mx+b, so you would first subtract 2x from both sides to get 3y= -2x+1,470. Then you divide both sides by 3, to get y= -2/3x+490. -2/3 is in the place of m, so it is the slope, and 490 is in the place of b, so it is the y-int.
