The proportion x/44=75/100 can be used to solve a percent problem. which problem can be solved using this proportion

Original price was 44$. Find discounted price after 25% discount applied.

Step-by-step explanation:

x-discounted price

44 - original price

75% what is left after 25 % discount

100% original price in %

to find discounted price:

x/44=75/100 can be used to solve a percent problem

1. 34

2. 268

3. x=14.4

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of red paint to blue paint is always 9/7. that means that, whatever x's value, (4x+12)/(4x-4) has that same ratio. so, set up an equation and cross-multiply to solve for x:

9/7 = (4x+12)/(4x-4)

9(4x-4) = 7(4x+12)

36x - 36 = 28x + 84

8x - 36 = 84

8x = 120

x = 15
