25% of 30 can be found by converting 25% to a decimal and multiplying it by 30.

25% = 0.25

30x0.25=7.5

So x is 7.5.

Answer:

FV= $2,407.53

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Present Value (PV)= 1,300

Interest rate (i)= 4.5% = 0.045

Number of periods (n)= 14 years

<u>To calculate the future value (FV) of the initial investment after 14 years, we need to use the following formula:</u>

FV= PV*(1 + i)^n

FV= 1,300*(1.045^14)

FV= $2,407.53

Solve the proportional<br> equation below:<br> x/4 = x-6/3

aleksandrvk [35]

<h2><u>PROPORTIONAL EQUATION</u></h2><h3>Exercise</h3>

Apply the means-extremes property of proportions: this allows you to cross multiply:

$\boxed{\mathsf{\dfrac{x}{4} = \dfrac{x - 6}{3}}}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{x}{4} \searrow \dfrac{x - 6}{3}}$ ‏‏‎ ‏‏‎‎ $\mathsf{\dfrac{x}{4} \nearrow \dfrac{x-6}{3}}$ ‏‏‎‎

$\boxed{\mathsf{3x = 4(x - 6)}}$

Apply the distributive property:

$\mathsf{3x = 4(x-6)}$

$\mathsf{3x = 4(x) - 4(6)}$

$\mathsf{3x = 4x - 24}$

Add 24 to both sides:

$\mathsf{3x + 24 = 4x - 24 + 24}$

$\mathsf{3x + 24 = 4x}$

Substract 3x to both sides

$\mathsf{3x - 3x + 24 = 4x - 3x}$

$\mathsf{24 = 4x - 3x}$

$\large{\boxed{\mathsf{24 = x}}}$

‎ ‏‏‎

<h3><u>Answer</u>. The value of x = 24.</h3>

Florence works in the shipping department of a toy factory that makes radio-controlled helicopters. Small helicopters weigh 3 ki

Damm [24]

Answer:

50 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

SMALL HELICOPTERS:

Weight of small helicopters = 3kg

Weight of shipping container = 20kg

LARGE HELICOPTERS:

Weight of large helicopters = 4kg

Weight of shipping container = 10kg

Number of helicopters each shipping container can hold = s ; all of the packed containers will have the same shipping weight

Shipping weight :

(Weight per helicopter * number of helicopter) + weight of shipping container

Shipping weight of Small helicopters :

(3kg * s) + 20

Shipping weight Large helicopters :

(4kg * S) + 10

Shipping weight of Small helicopters = shipping weight of large helicopters

3s + 20 = 4s + 10

20 - 10 = 4s - 3s

10 = s

Hence, member of shipped helicopters = 10

Total shipping weight :

(4 * S) + 10

(4*10) + 10

40 + 10 = 50kg
