Answer:
- Identify the variable term on one side and subtract it from both sides.
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the question relates to terms containing the variable you want to solve for.
In general, you want to rearrange the equation so there is only one term containing the variable of interest. This can be accomplished by identifying the variable term(s) on one side of the equation and subtracting that from both sides of the equation.
For <u>example</u>, consider ...
ax + b = cx + d
<u><em>First step</em></u>
Terms ax and cx are on opposite sides of the equal sign. If we're solving for x, we need to remove one of those terms. We can do that by subtracting cx from both sides of the equation:
ax -cx +b = cx -cx +d . . . . . showing the subtraction
x(a -c) +b = d . . . . . . . . . . . . .the simplified result of the subtraction
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
Please note that the coefficient of the variable is now (a-c). This will be <em>positive</em> if the term we subtracted (cx) had the smaller of the two coefficients (c < a). While not essential, this is a convenient choice to make when choosing which term to subtract.
Answer:
11%
Step-by-step explanation:
A sales tax is placed on goods and services once the buyer and seller agree on what the exchange of currency is.
In this case you take the tax on the 1625 and not the 1803.75.
The buyer agreed to buy the item for 1625 and the seller agreed to sell it for that amount. So the tax goes on 1625.
Tax amount = total price - selling price
Tax amount = 1803.75 - 1625
Tax amount = 178.75
That's not what you want. You want the % of the tax.
% Tax = (Tax Amount / Selling Price) * 100
% Tax = (178.75 / 1625) * 100
% Tax = 0.11 * 100
% Tax = 11% Answer
Answer:
105 is the least common denominator
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 7, 5 and 3 are all prime.
LCM would be 7×3×5 = 105
4 packs of notepads and 5 packs of sticky notes
Explanation: if he needs the same number of both he needs to find the first number that 4 and 5 both go into. 4 x 5 = 20 so this is the least common multiple
Answer:
The answer to your question is: P = 17 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Parrot = 11 years older than the cat
C = cat age
P = parrot age
P = ? when C = 6
Process
P = C + 11
P = 6 + 11
P = 17 years
