Answer:

375

Step-by-step explanation:

let the ratio constant be 'x'

=>Profit ratio for A=7x

=>Profit ratio for B=5x

Profit=900 (Given)

Sum of the ratios=7x+5x=12x

Therefore,

Profit ratio for A=(7/12)x900=7x75=525

Profit ratio for B=(5/12)x900=7x75=375

What is the sales tax on a breakfast order that totals $10.50 when tax is 5%
Alecsey [184]
First, you would need to create an equation for this problem. Let x represent the unknown tax. 
\frac{x}{10.50} = \frac{5}{100}

Next, you would cross multiply. 
100x = 52.5

Now, all you would have to do is isolate the x. To do this, you would divide both sides by 100. 
x = $0.525

I hope this helps!

AlexFokin [52]

Let the balance = Y and the number of weeks = x

She takes out 15 per week, so multiply 15 by x ( the number of weeks) to get 15x.

You would then want to subtract that from the amount she started with in her account.

The equation becomes: Y = 150 - 15x
