Answer: <em>x = 1.25</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>HF - is the middle line of the triangle ABC.</em>

$HF=\dfrac{1}{2} AB\\\\HF=4x+1\\AB=12x-3\\\\4x+1=\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot (12x-3)\\\\4x+1=\dfrac{12x-3}{2} \\\\(4x+1) \cdot 2 =12x-3\\8x+2=12x-3\\8x+2-12x=12x-3-12x\\-4x+2=-3\\-4x+2-2=-3-2\\-4x=-5\\-4x \cdot (-1)=-5 \cdot (-1)\\4x=5\\4x \div 4=5 \div 4\\x=1.25$

A protein mix claims to contain a bonus of 20% more mix than the usual size container. If the bonus size contains 18 ounces of m

Answer:

The usual size of the container is 15 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A protein mix claims to contain a bonus of 20% more mix than the usual size container.

Let the usual size of the container was x ounces.

They increase 20% of usual size and the bonus size is 18 ounces.

Therefore, the new size should be:

$x+20\%x=18$

$x(1+0.20)=18$ (∴20%= $\frac{20}{100}$ =0.20)

$x(1.20)=18$

$x=\frac{18}{1.20}$

$x=15$

Hence, the usual size of the container is 15 ounces.
