Ok, to solve this first you have to set up your proportion:
9/150=x/230
/ is a fraction
x= the number of vials it will take to treat 230 patients
in order to solve this, you have to cross multiply:
9 x 230= 2070
150 · x= 150x
so you get 150x=2070
then divide 2070 by 150
2070/150= 13.8
so it would take 13.8 vials of medicine to treat 230 patients
Marked down 15% means the new price would be 85% of the original price ( 100%-15% - 85%)
Multiply the original price by 85%:
5250 x 0.85 = 4462.50
The new price is $4,462.50
Answer:
1.11333333
Step-by-step explanation:
I calculated using Symbolab
sorry if its wrong
9x - 4(x - 2) =x + 20
We move all terms to the left:
- 9x -4(x - 2) - (x + 20) = 0
Multiply
- 9x - 4x -(x + 20) + 8 = 0
We get rid of the parentheses.
We add all the numbers and all the variables.
We move all terms containing x to the left hand side, all other terms to the right hand side
