1620 = 2x + 120
1500 = 2x
x = 750

Paul pays $750 for rent.

Answer: $750

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, we need to write an equation that expresses the given information, we know that twice Paul's rent (x) plus another $120 equals Philip's rent that is $1620, so we can write that as follows:

2x+$120=$1620

isolating the "x" we have that:

2x=$1620-$120

2x=$1500

x=$750

So Paul pays $750 for rent.

LITTERLY HELP ME PLEASEE..... 2/x-4x/2x-3=-2<br> PLEASEE I INSERTED A PIC
Stels [109]

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is,

\frac{2}{x}- \frac{4x}{2x-3}=-2

\frac{2(2x-3)}{x(2x-3)}-\frac{4x(x)}{x(2x-3)}=-2

\frac{2(2x-3)-4x^{2} }{x(2x-3)}=-2

(4x - 6) - 4x² = -2x(2x - 3)

4x - 6 - 4x² = -4x² + 6x

4x - 6 = 6x

6x - 4x = -6

2x = -6

x = -3

Kabul’s bookshop marks up all books by 40 percent of their cost. The overhead rate is 16 percent of the selling price. What is t
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The net profit rate on the book is 5.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The marks up percentage of book = m = 40%

The overhead rate is 16% of selling price

The cost price of book = c.p = $18.10

Let The profit = $p

Let The selling price = s.p

<u>Now, According to question</u>

mark up percentage = \dfrac{s.p - c.p}{c.p}

I.e 40% =  \dfrac{s.p - 18.10}{18.10}

Or, \dfrac{40}{100} + 1 = \dfrac{s.p}{18.10}

Or, \dfrac{140}{100} =  \dfrac{s.p}{18.10}

Or, s. p = \dfrac{140\times 18.10}{100}

∴ s.p = $25.34

So, selling price of book = s.p = $25.34

Now, The overhead percentage = 16%

i.e overhead rate = \dfrac{\textrm estimated cost}{\textrm estimated total base unit}

Or, estimated cost = 16% × 25.34

I,e estimated cost = 0.16 × 25.34

∴ estimated cost = $4.05

Now,

Profit = selling price of book - estimated book cost

I.e p = $25.34 - $4.05

∴ p = $21.29

So, The profit rate% = \dfrac{\textrm profit}{\textrm estimated cost}

I.e The profit rate% = \dfrac{21.29}{4.05}

∴ profit rate %= 5.41

So, The profit rate = p = 5.41

Hence, The net profit rate on the book is 5.41  Answer

A company sells fruit smoothies in two sizes: 6 ounces and 20 ounces. You know that a 6-ounce bottle contains 96 milligrams of s
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

320 milligrams of sodium

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion where x is the milligrams of sodium a 20 ounce bottle has:

\frac{96}{6} = \frac{x}{20}

Cross multiply and solve for x

1920 = 6x

320 = x

So, a 20 ounce bottle will have 320 milligrams of sodium
