"Bucket method"
.. (4)*(14%) + (x)*(8%) = (4 +x)*(10%) . . . . . liters and % are in each "bucket"
.. 56 +8x = 40 +10x . . . . . multiply by 100, eliminate parentheses
.. 16 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add -40-8x, then divide by 2
.. 8 = x
8 liters of 8% lemonade should be added to make the mixture 10% lemon juice.
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given expression is:</u></em>
We have to combine the like terms
From given expression,
By distributive property,
The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.
a(b + c) = ab + bc
Therefore,
Solve for brackets using distributive property
Add 1/7 and 6/7
Thus the equivalent expression is found
Answer:
0.95
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x ≤ 6.12
Step-by-step explanation:
If the cost of 1 hamburger in a restaurant is $0.49, the amount of hamburger $3 can buy is expressed as shown
.
$0.49 = 1
$3 ≤ x (since you have maximum of $3 to spend. It cant be more than that)
cross multiply to find the expression for x.
$0.49 * x ≤ $3 * 1
$0.49x ≤ $3
Divide both sides by $0.49
$0.49x/$0.49 ≤ $3/$0.49
x ≤ $3/$0.49
x ≤ 6.12
The number of hamburgers you can buy is represented by the inequality x ≤ 6.12
