Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

18/90 = .2

Answer: 20%
Explanation: You can set up a ratio. 18 / 90 to x / 100. x is the percentage of a full 100. Cross multiply, which gives you 1800 and 90. Divide, which gives you 20.

Three brothers have ages that are consecutive even integers. the product of the first and third boys' ages is 20 more than wice
vladimir1956 [14]
Let the first brother = x 
second brother = x + 2
third brother = x + 4

<span>The product of the first and third boys' ages is 20 more than twice the second boy's age:

x(x+4) = 2(x+2) + 20
x</span>² + 4x = 2x + 4 + 20
x² + 4x - 2x - 24 = 0
x² + 2x - 24 = 0
(x - 4)(x + 6) = 0
x = 4 or -6 (rejected, age cannot be negative)

First brother = 4
Second brother = 4 + 2 = 6
Third brother = 4 + 4 = 8

The three boys are 4, 6, and 8 years old.

Which represents the solution set to the inequality<br> -1.5(4x + 1) &gt; 4.5 -2.5(x + 1)?
laila [671]
<h2><u>The solution set to inequality is:</u></h2>

\boxed{-1.5\left(4x+1\right)>4.5-2.5\left(x+1\right)\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:x

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given inequality is:</u></em>

-1.5(4x + 1) > 4.5 -2.5(x + 1)

We have to find the solution set to inequality

From given,

-1.5(4x + 1) > 4.5 -2.5(x + 1)\\\\\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}10\\\\-1.5\left(4x+1\right)\cdot \:10>4.5\cdot \:10-2.5\left(x+1\right)\cdot \:10\\\\-15\left(4x+1\right)>45-25\left(x+1\right)

Expand

-60x -15 > 45 -25x - 25\\\\Simplify\\\\-60x-15>-25x +20

\mathrm{Add\:}15\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}\\\\-60x-15+15>-25x+20+15\\\\Simplify\\\\-60x>-25x+35\\\\\mathrm{Add\:}25x\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}\\\\-60x+25x>-25x+35+25x\\\\Simplify\\\\-35x>35\\\\\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:-1\:\left(reverse\:the\:inequality\right)}\\\\\left(-35x\right)\left(-1\right)

<em><u>Thus the solution set is:</u></em>

-1.5\left(4x+1\right)>4.5-2.5\left(x+1\right)\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:x
