A=12
120% of a =80% of b
120%a = 80%b
120a/100 = 80b/100
Divide through by 100
120a = 80b
Divide through by 80
120a/80 = b
But a=12
120x 12/80 = b
18 = b
b = 18

a+b = 12 + 18 = 30

How many solutions are there to the equation below?
Anton [14]

Answer:

B. Infinitely Many

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Distribute

5x + 48 + 7x = 12x + 48

Step 2: Combine like terms

12x + 148 = 12x + 48

If the 2 lines are the same, which they are, they are the same lines. That means there are an infinite amount of solutions. If they had the same slope but different y-intercepts, there would be no solutions because the lines are parallel. Any other pair of equations would have 1 solution.
