5x + 9 = x - 23
move x to the other side
sign changes from +x to -x
5x-x+9= x-x-23 ( combine like terms)
5x-x+9= -23
4x+9= -23
move -9 to the other side
4x+9-9= -23-9
4x= -23-9
4x= -32
divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself
4x/4= -32/4
answer:
x= -8
Initial cash on hand : $200.00
Ticket cost : $87.96
T-shirt cost per piece: $30.00
The first thing Staci needs to do is to deduct the cost of the ticket from her money.
$200 - 87.96 = $112.04
Stacy has the extra amount of 112.04 to purchase t-shirts. Since, each t-shirt costs $30. To know the number of shirts she can buy, she must divide the difference by 30.
$112.04 / $30 = 3.73
Based from the quotient, Stacy can buy 3 t-shirts.
$30 * 3 = $90 total cost of the tshirts.
$112.04 - 90 = $22.04
After buying the ticket and 3 tshirts, Staci has an excess of $22.04 from her $200.
Answer:
4x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
Your money grows faster because the interest is added back into the principle and then the next time it compounds you get interest on the new principle amount. So for example, you deposit $100 in an account that gets 5% interest compounded semiannually. The first time it compounds you get $5 added to your account so your new balance is $105. The next time it compounds you get 5% on $105 so you get $5.25 added and so on. If this is only happening semi-annually that would be all you get for the year. But if it happens quarterly you would get would get deposits of $5.51 and $5.79 as well. If it compounds monthly or even daily your money would grow more and more. Hope this helps.
Answer: the selling price of the television at store B is $1360
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the selling price of the television at store B is represented by $B. Store A is selling the television for $800, which is $120 more than half the cost of the television at store B. The equation representing this situation is expressed as
800 = B/2 + 120
Multiplying the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 2, it becomes
1600 = B + 240
B = 1600 - 240
B = $1360
