Describe a real-world situation in which opposite quantities combine to make zero.

Sarah bought a lawnmower for $320. She signed up for the buy now pay later plan at the store with the following conditions: $100

marishachu [46]

Cost of the lawnmower bought by Sarah = $320
Amount of down payment made by Sarah = $100
Amount paid by Sarah in 12 months = (12 * 25) dollars
= 300 dollars
Total amount paid by Sarah = (300 + 100) dollars
= 400 dollars
Excess amount paid as interest by Sarah = (400 - 320) dollars
= 80 dollars
Actual yearly rate of interest paid by Sarah = (80/320) * 100 percent
= 25 percent
So 25% yearly interest was paid by Sarah. The correct option is option "C".

How many oz of walnuts which cost $6/oz must be added to 2 oz of peanuts which cost $12/oz to make mixed nuts which cost $8/oz

Burka [1]

Answer: 4 oz

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Create a table. Multiply across and add down (the middle column cannot be added). The Mixture line creates the equation that must be solved.

Let x represent the unknown quantity of walnuts.

$\begin{array}{c|c|c||c}&\underline{Quantity}&\underline{Cost}&\underline{Qty \times Cost}\\Walnuts&x&6&6x\\\underline{Peanuts}&\underline{\qquad 2\qquad}&\underline{\qquad 12\qquad}&\underline{\qquad 24\qquad }\\Mixture&x+2&8&6x+24\end{array}$

$.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad (x+2)(8) = 6x+24\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad 8x + 16 = 6x + 24\longrightarrow \text{distributed}\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad2x+16=24\qquad \longrightarrow \text{subtracted 6x}\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad 2x=8\qquad \qquad \ \longrightarrow \text{subtracted 16}\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad x=4\qquad \qquad \quad \longrightarrow \text{divided by 2}$
