Dax and his friends start a fundraiser to help residents who lost their belongings. In the first week, they raise $360, which is 30% of the total amount that they want to raise. What is the total amount of money that Dax and his friends want to raise?

the total amount of money that Dax and his friends want to raise is $1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total amount of money that Dax and his friends want to raise.

In the first week, they raise $360, which is 30% of the total amount that they want to raise. This would be expressed as

30/100 × x = 360

0.3 × x = 360

0.3x = 360

x = 360/0.3

x = 1200

$1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total amount be 'T'

30% of T = 360

30/100 × T = 360

3/10 × T = 360

T = 360 × 10/3

T = 1200

1. x> -5

2. x< 8

step-by-step explanation:

1. 2x> -10

divide by 2 from both sides of equation.

2x/2> -10/2

simplify, to find the answer.

-10/2=-5

x> -5 is the correct answer.

2. 3x< 24

divide by 3 from both sides of equation.

3x/3< 24/3

simplify, to find the answer.

24/3=8

x< 8 is the correct answer.

i hope this you, and have a wonderful day!
