Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume you mean "if the ratio of 7 less than a number and 7 more than the number is 2".
Let x be the number.
Ratio is division.
(x-7)/(x+7)=2
Multiply by (x+7) on each side:
x-7=2(x+7) = 2x+14
Add 7 on each side
x=2x+21
Subtract 2
-x=21
x=-21
Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar so we can use ratios
4x+12 32
------- = ------------
15 8
Using cross products
(4x+12) *8 = 15 * 32
(4x+12) *8 = 480
Divide each side by 8
(4x+12) *8/8 = 480/8
4x+12 = 60
Subtract 12 from each side
4x+12 -12 = 60-12
4x = 48
Divide by 4
4x/4 = 48/4
x = 12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Worth of furnishings = $1580
Tax rate = 4.5%
Tax = 4.5% × $1580 = 0.045 × $1580 = $71.10
Amount paid = $1580 + $71.10 = $1651.10
Since the decorator's fee was 12% of the purchases. This will then be calculated as:
y = kx
where,
y = decorators fee
k = percentage of decorators fee on purchases
x = amount paid
y = 12% × $1651.10
= 0.12 × $1651.10
= $198.132
Answer:
16+w
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem to solve is:
6+4+(w+2)+4
6+4 evaluates to 10
w+2 evaluates to w+2
10 + 2 = 12
The answer is 12+w
6+4+(w+2) evaluates to 12+w
12 + 4 = 16
The answer is 16+w
6+4+(w+2)+4 evaluates to 16+w
The final answer is
16+w
