Answer:

The amount of candy you had before is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

75% + 25% makes 100% percent.

If we take 25% off from 8, you get 6.

A quick way to do this is: 8(.25)

If you solve that, you get 2. 8 - 2 is 6, which is what you originally had.

iris [78.8K]
U=2x+3, x=u/2-3/2
u^2+8u+11=0
u1=(-8+sqrt(64-44))/2=-4+sqrt(5)
u2=-4-sqrt(5)
x1=u1/2-3/2=-7/2+sqrt(5)/2
x2=u2-3/2=-7/2-sqrt(5)/2

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

79.2 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

What must be done is to apply a proportion rule, taking into account what happened in the registry and what is wanted for this new year. In the following way we can calculate the amount of tons of oranges.

Powder concentrate                    Oranges

         45 tons -------------------------> 54 Tons

         66 tons -------------------------> X Tons

X = 66 * 54/45

X = 79.2, that is to say that 79.2 tons are necessary to produce 66 tons of powder concentrate to make juice.
