For this case what we can do is the following rule of three:
 24.3 -----> 130%
 x ---------> 100%
 We clear the value of x:
 x = (100/130) * (24.3)
 x = 18.7 grams
 Answer:
 
the current mass of the object was:
 
x = 18.7 grams

Find the values for k so that the intersection of x = 2k and 3x + 2y = 12 lies in the first quadrant.
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

0 < k < 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>In the first quadrant both of x and y get positive values, so </u>

  • x > 0 and y > 0
  • x = 2k, k > 0

<u>And replacing x with 2k in the second equation:</u>

  • 3x + 2y = 12
  • 3*2k + 2y = 12
  • 2y= 12 - 6k
  • y = 6 - 3k

<u>Since y > 0:</u>

  • 6 - 3k> 0
  • 2 - k > 0
  • k < 2

<u>Combining both k > 0 and k < 2, we get:</u>

  • 0 < k < 2

Henri has $24,000 invested in stocks and bonds. The amount in stocks is $6,000 more than three times the amount in bonds. Call t
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The solve of that problem is that Hernry invested $18.000 in stocks and $6.000 in bonds.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to explain you have to do a multiplication about 6 on three. Like three times more than bonds, the result is 18. Then you have to do a  subtraction on $24.000 less $18.000, and the result is $6.000, so six is the amount on bonds. And is three times less than stocks, like the questions ask.
