104 / 169 = x / 224.25......104 lbs to 169 mg = x lbs to 224.25 mg
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(169)(x) = (104)(224.25)
169x = 23322
x = 23322 / 169
x = 138 lbs <==
Answer:
x=44
Step-by-step explanation:
Making the equation in terms of x:
0.2x + 0.8 = 9.6
-0.8 -0.8
0.2x=8.8
*5 *5
x=44
Answer:
a) 8 apples
b) 5 oranges
c) 2 oranges and 6 apples
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 8 apples × 1$ = 8$ < 10$
b) 5 oranges × 2$ = 10$
c) 2 oranges × 2$ = 4$
6 apples × 1$ = 6$ (4+6=10)
so to find 15% of 54,237, we use this equation: (x/54237) = (15/100) where x is the amount of income tax.
cross multiply: 100x = 813555
divide each side by 100 to isolate x: 8135.55
the truck driver will pay $8135.55
It would be (12,20) or (20,12) I don't know which one
