Respuesta :

Using proportions, the amounts are given as follows:

  • 18% off: 0.82x.
  • 18% more: 1.18x.
  • Volume after [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex] is drained out: [tex]\frac{7x}{10}[/tex]
  • New stock: [tex]\frac{13x}{10}[/tex]

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, the amounts are found as follows:

  • 18% off its list price (x), that is, 82% of x, hence 0.82x.
  • Sells for 18% more, that is, 118% = 1.18 of x, hence 1.18x.
  • When three tenths of the volume is drained out, the remainder is 100% = 1x subtracted from that, hence [tex]\frac{7x}{10}[/tex].
  • For the new stock, three tenths of x plus the current stock of x, hence [tex]\frac{3}{10}x + x = \frac{13}{10}x[/tex].
