Easy Algebra question!

Let's use "x" as a variable.

The equation would be x+x+60 = 240 with "x" being George's weight.

Subtract 60 from both sides and you get 2x = 180.

From there you divide both sides by 2, getting x=90.

"x" is George's weight, so he weighs 90 pounds.

ANSWER: 90 POUNDS

El precio de costo de “x” artículos es 60x + 4 000, además el precio de venta de los mismos es 80x. Determinar la cantidad de ar
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

800 artículos.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sea x = la cantidad de artículos vendidos

De la pregunta,

Precio de costo = 60 x + 4000

Venta (precio de venta) = 80x

También nos dieron ganancias como S12000

Para determinar la ganancia

Precio de venta: precio de costo = beneficio (cuando el precio de venta es más alto que el precio de costo)

Por lo tanto,

12,000 = 80x - (60x + 4000)

12,000 = 80x - 60x - 4000

Recolectando términos similares

12,000 + 4,000 = 80x - 60x

16,000 = 20x

x = 16,000 / 20

x = 800

Por lo tanto, la cantidad de artículos que se venderán si desea obtener una ganancia de S12,000 es de 800 artículos.
