A new, larger tube of lotion contains 15.6 ounces The new bottle says you get 30% more than the amount in the original tube. How many ounces were in the original tube?

the original tube contained 12 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of ounces of lotion that was in the original tube.

The new bottle says you get 30% more than the amount in the original tube. The number of ounces of lotion that makes 30% is

30/100 × x = 0.3 × x = 0.3x

The new, larger tube of lotion contains 15.6 ounces. This means that the number of ounces of lotion in the new tube is expressed as

x + 0.3x = 15.6

1.3x = 15.6

x = 15.6/1.3

x = 12

18

step-by-step explanation:

draw the shape and you will see that f and k are actually at adjacent vertices (points of the hexagon that are neighboring).   so find the distance between (1,2) and (4,2).   that is easy since (1,2) and (4,2) is just a vertical distance to count, which is 3.   it is a regular polygon which means all sides are congruent.   you have 6 sides (hexa) so multiply 6 by 3 to receive 18.
