I don't think that you put parentheses around any numbers because when I solve it with parentheses between numbers I get other numbers like 16 or 17
2x + 3(6) = 36
2x + 18 = 36
2x = 18
x = 9
answer: each bracelet costs $9
Answer: Lesser = 19, Greater = 21
See picture reply.
Let A be the event 'made by Apex and defective':
P(A) = 0.67 x 0.11 = 0.0737
Let B be the event 'made by B-ink and defective':
P(B) = 0.33 x 0.06 = 0.0198
Let C be the event 'made by Apex or B-ink and defective':
P(C) = P(A) + P(B) = 0.0737 + 0.0198 = 0.0935
P(defective and made by Apex) = 0.0737/0.0935 = 0.788
The answer is 0.788 or 78.8%.
16/22=24/x
x=33
then subtract
33-22=11
11 galons should be taken out
