Answer:
153
Step-by-step explanation:
ans.
5x=85
x =85÷5
=17
9x=17x9
=153
The answer is A. The reason for this is because 2% of $300 is $6. Since 6 is less than 8, the answer is A.
The answer to question 34:
Let 'x' = pounds of gravel. The ratio of mulch to gravel is given 2 1/4 | 1 1/3. Which equals 9/4 | 4/3 = 27/16.
So the total gravel and much is equal to x + 27/16x = 172
Solving for 'x'
43/16 x = 172
x = 172 (16/43) = 64 pounds of gravel Mulch = 27/16x = 64 (27/16)= 108 pounds
The answer to question 35:
A.) 1,080 beats per minute at rest and 1,500 beats per minute while running.
B.) 4,500 (while running) - 3,240 (at rest) = 1,260 more beats while running than at rest.
Let the number be x and 2x-5 from the above given condition
x+2x-5=70
or
3x=75 s0 x=25
Hence, the number are 25 and 45
