:
The percent increase is found by finding the difference between the two prices and then dividing that different by the beginning price.
For this example it would be 65-39= $26. So $26/$39(the starting price) is 0.666... This is equivalent to about 66.67%. So, the price of the card increased by about 66.67%
It equals 5/6 And the decimal form is 0.8333 and so on
Answer:
9x/4= -9
Mutiply by 4 for both sides.
4(9x/4) cross out 4 and 4, divide by 4 and then becomes 9x. (-9)(4)= -36
9x= -36
Divide by 9 for both sides
9x/9= -36/9
x= -4
