Joshua currently does a total of 8 pushups each day. He plans to increase the number of pushups he does each day by 2 pushups until he is doing a total of 30 pushups each day. How many days would this take? Use x to represent days.

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y equal number of pushups a day. When x = 1, y = 8. When x = 2, y = 10. 10 is a factor of 30. Multiply y by 3. However, since x increases by 1 when y increases by 2, multiply x by 6 (2*3). That equals 12. Therefore, when x = 12, y = 30.

the 1st digit is in the 100s n its 1

step-by-step explanation:

3,589÷18 = 199.389

so the first digit of the quotient is in the 100s n its 1

answer:   expression= p+p*d%

price reduction + sale price = $625

sale price: $p+$p*d%

where d% is the percentage of discount

step-by-step explanation:

original price = p

price went down by $150 price reduction $p*d%

sale price= $ 475

therefore the price before sale is: $625

and the expression that shows the price before sale is: p+p*d%
