The rational number would be 16
Answer:
it depends on the shelf
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay well the starting is 28 dollars, right. But since there is a 20 percent discount, you have to turn 20% to a decimal. That means moving the decimal sign twice to the left to make it .20. From the it would be .20*28, that should equal 5.6. Now, that 5.6 is the amount you have to take away, it is the price of the sale. From then, you subtract which is 28-5.6 which should be 22.4. From that 22.4 you now take away two dollars and then it should be 22.4-2 which should be 20.4. Now that is your answer, 20.4.
Look at the picture.
Therefore we have the equation:
10y - 29 = 7y + 19 <em>add 29 to both sides</em>
10y = 7y + 48 <em>subtract 7y from both sides</em>
3y = 48 <em>divide both sides by 3</em>
y = 16
3x + 7 = 5x - 21 <em>subtract 7 from both sides</em>
3x = 5x = -28 <em>subtract 5x from both sides</em>
-2x = -28 <em>divide both sides by (-2)</em>
x = 14
Answer:
a = 9/2
Step-by-step explanation:
In order for the equation to be true, the value of the scalar multiplier must be ...
15/3 = -10/-2 = 35/7 = 5
So, you're solving ...
(2/3)a + 2 = 5
(2/3)a = 3 . . . . . . subtract 2
a = 9/2 . . . . . . . . multiply by 3/2
