3x(2) + 2(2x - 20) = 16 - 2x(2)
6x + 4x - 40 = 16 - 4x
10x - 40 = 16 - 4x
14x - 40 = 16
14x = 56
x = 4
Hope this helps! ;)
If you look on the water bottle paper (It depends) you will find that it holds one of the amounts from 16.9<span> to 20 oz.

First round
137,638=100,000
52,091=50,000
Then add to get the estamate
100,000
+
50,000
150,000
Then to get the real answer add

Firstly, we have to find out what 10% of $25000 is. To do this, multiply $25000 by 0.1 (10% in decimal form):
. <em>$2500 is the 10% raise.</em>
Next, to find your first new salary, add $25000 and $2500 together:
. <u>$27500 is your new salary after the 10% raise.</u>
Next, we need to find 10% of $27500. It's a similar process as to finding 10% of $25000.
. <em>$2750 is your 10% cut.</em>
Next, since this is a cut, subtract $2750 from $27500.
. <u>$24750 is your new salary after the 10% cut.</u>
Next, to find the percentage change, firstly divide $24750 by $25000.
. Now this shows that your current salary is 99% of what you used to make. It is <em>not</em> how much less you make. To find how much less it is, subtract 99% from 100%:
. <u>Your current salary is 1% less than what you used to make.</u>
