Multiply entire equation by (x-2)(x+1) to get rid of the denominators That would lead to X(x+1)+(x-1)(x-2)=-1(x-2)(x+1)
Finally, using distributive property and foil, you would get x^2+x+x^2-3x+2=(-x^2+x+2).2x^2-2x+2=-x^2+x+23x^2-3x=0
3x(x-1)x=0 and x=1
Answers:
She made ___25___ grams of ___40___% salt solution
------------------------------------------------------------------
The given info "20 grams of 50% salt solution" tells us that we have 10 grams of pure salt
Since 50% of 20 = 0.50*20 = 10
Put another way, we have 10 grams of pure salt out of 20 total so 10/20 = 0.50 = 50% salt solution
The 20 grams of solution updates to 25 grams of solution when we add the 5 grams of water
We don't add any salt, assuming this water is fresh water
So we still have 10 grams of pure salt out of 25 grams now
10/25 = 2/5 = 0.40 = 40% is the new salt concentration
For a. divide 125 by 300 then multiply by 100
The answer for a. is 41.66%
For b. convert percentage to decimal divide by 100 then multiply 0.15 by 2.25 to get 0.3375. Round it off to 0.34 and subtract that from 2.25 to get
The answer for b. is $1.91
For c. you have to figure out the difference first. 2.50 minus 2.00 is 0.50
So then what percent of 2.00 is 0.50
Divide 2.00 by 0.50 to get 4.
The answer for c. is 4%
Honestly this was kinda rushed because I'm in the middle of a quiz so yea hope this helps you.

50% chance, since their are 50 other marbles in the jar.
Can you explain ? i don't understood
