Answer:  \bold{x=\dfrac{11}{21}}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

\dfrac{2}{3}-\dfrac{4x+7}{2}=-9x+\dfrac{5}{6}\\\\(6)\dfrac{2}{3}-(6)\dfrac{4x+7}{2}=-9x(6)+(6)\dfrac{5}{6}\qquad \text{(multiplied by LCD) }\\\\4 - 12x-21=-54x+5\qquad \text{(simplified)}\\\\-12x - 17 = -54x + 5\qquad \text{(added like terms)}\\\\42x-17=5\qquad \text{(added 54x to both sides)}\\\\42x = 22\qquad \text{(added 17 to both sides)}\\\\x=\dfrac{22}{42}\qquad \text{(divided both sides by 42)}\\\\x=\dfrac{11}{21}\qquad \text{(reduced the fraction)}


NOTE: The sign between 4x and 7 is missing in the question you posted.  I assumed it was 4x + 7 in order to solve the equation.

In Jim's class, 5 times as many students take the bus as those who walk. A total of 24 students walk or take the bus. How many m
lana [24]
The answer is 16.  To solve this problem, it will look like this:
5 n + n = 24
So, 6(4) = 24. n=4
With this equation, you can see that 4 kids walk to school and 20 take the bus. Then you need to do 20 - 4 = 16. So 16 more kids take the bus than walk to school. 

Another way to look at it...
We know there are 5 times as many bus kids as there are walkers. 
walkers - n
bus kids - n+n+n+n+n
6n = 24 (the total number of students), which can translate to 6 x n = 24. We know that 6x4=24, so n=4. The number of kids that walk is 4. The number of kids on the bus is 20. So subtract the bus kids from the walking kids, and that leaves us the answer. 16 more students ride the bus than those who walk. I hope that helped.

REY [17]

Answer: $128.00

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are given the information that Ivana's furniture store buys a chair at a wholesale price of $320.00 and that the markup rate at Ivana's store store is 40%.

The total markup will then be:
