Given:
Spoilage rate of fruits = 9% = 0.09
To find:
Amount of fruits to be order to have 100 pounds of peaches and considering the spoilage rate.
Solution:
Let the required amount of fruits you should order be x.
So, spoiled fruits = 9% of x = 0.09x
He would like to have 100 pounds of peaches to sell.


Divide both sides by 0.91.



The required amount of fruits to be order is 110 lbs. Therefore, the correct option is D.
Answer:
Patient A - 150 mg
Patient B - 50 mg
Step-by-step explanation:
Since patient A gets three times more, 50 times 3 is 150. 150 plus 50 is 200, therefore, patient A gets 150 mg and patient B gets 50 mg. I hope this helps :)
Lets find all the numbers..
x (1st number)
x + 2 ( 2nd number)
x + 4 (3rd number)
x + 6 (4th number)
x + 8 (5th number)
x + 10 (6th number)
Now add all those expressions and set them equal to 270 because that is the total.
x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 + x + 10 = 270
6x + 30 = 270
6x = 240
x = 40
Now we will substitute 40 for x in the expression of the second number.
x + 2
40 + 2
42
So the second number is 42
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
27 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the average is to be 23 degrees over 5 days then the total of the temperatures will be 5*23 = 115 degrees.
The total over the first 4 days = 22*4 = 88 degrees, so the temperature on the fifth day has to be 115 - 88 = 27 degrees.
