Answer:
if im correct it should be 40
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are looking for x then it is X = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
If x = the amount of 12% and y = the amount of 20%, then x + y = 80
Since we need 80 grams of 15%, 80(.15) = 12.
We are given that .12x + .20y = 12.
We can solve the first equation for x or y. Let's do x.
x = 80 - y
.12(80 - y) + .20y = 12
9.6 - .12y + .20y = 12
.08y = 2.4
y = 30
x = 80 - 30 = 50
Answer:
3.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The straight line distance from the school to the mall is found using the Pythagorean theorem. That distance is the hypotenuse of a triangle that is 27 blocks in the east-west direction and 22 blocks in the north-south direction.
d = √(27^2 +22^2) = √1213 ≈ 34.83 . . . blocks
Since each block is 0.1 miles, the distance in miles is ...
distance to mall = (0.1 miles/block)(34.83 blocks) = 3.483 miles
Rounded to tenths, the distance from school to mall is 3.5 miles.
