Simplify the ratio 8 to 2 to be 4 to 1
Now compare 4 to 1 and 10 to 1
4 is smaller than 10 so the ratio 8 to 2 is smaller.
You put the x=6
6³-4(6)²-12(6)+15=15
Answer:
Equation = 1/4 x + 25 = 70
Solution = $180
Explanation:
Let the original amount she had before she went shopping be x
If she spent one-fourth on sloth, then the amount spent on cloth will be;
1/4 x
If she receives another $25 a week later totalling her money $70, then the equation that represents the situation will be;
1/4 x + 25 = 70
Find the solution
1/4 x + 25 = 70
1/4 x = 70 - 25
1/4 x = 45
x = 45 * 4
x = 180
Hence the amount she had before going for shoppind was $180
