X = 9
you multiply both sides by 3 because you have to get rid of it and what you do to one side you do to the other then you divide both sides by 2 to isolate the variable. i hope that makes sense.
Answer:
$73.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Original price: $64
Markup: 0.15($64) = $9.60
New retail price: $64 + $9.60 = $73.60
housing: 900/4500 = 0.2 = 20%
transportation: 650 / 4500 = 0.14 = 14%
utilities: 120/4500 = 0.026 = 2.6% ( round to 3% maybe)
food: 475/4500 = 0.105 = 10.5% (round to 11% maybe)
savings: 1600 / 4500 = 0.355 = 35.5% (round to 36% maybe)
Student Loan: 270 / 4500 = 0.06 = 6%
Other expenses: 485 / 4500 = 0.107 = 10.7% (round to 11% maybe)
You didn't say if they needed to be rounded so I gave you the options on the ones that may need it.
Answer:
3/8 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide both sides by 2 to get the value for 1/3 cup of water:
1/3 cup water = 1/8 cup of oil
Now, multiply each side of the equation by 3 to get 1 cup of water:
1 cup water = 3/8 cup of oil
hope this helps!
Answer:
First, 3 people divide $30, then each one of them pays:
$30/3 = $10.
Each one of them gets $1 in refound.
Then at the moment, each one of them paid $9, and there are 3 friends, so the total amount is 3*$9 = $27.
We also know that the cashier keeps $2, but these $2 must come from the $27 that the friends paid.
Then we will have $27 = $25 + $2.
This means that the total cost was $25, and the cashier kept $2 as a tip.
Now, in your problem, you add the $2 that the cashier kept to the $27 that the friends paid. While those $2 actually are already counted in the $27 that the friends paid.
