<span>1. Natural numbers are also known as "counting numbers", and are whole numbers starting at 1. A simple example set is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}. The reciprocal of a number is 1 divided by that number. The reciprocal of 2 is 1/2; this is not a natural number. 2. The set of whole numbers includes natural numbers and zero. A simple example set is {0, 1, 2, 3, 4}. The opposite of 1 is -1; this is not a whole number. 3. The set of integers include whole numbers and their negative counterparts. A simple example set is {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2}. The reciprocal of 1 is 1, which is an integer.</span>

The price of an item selling at 150% of its $63 value is
Triss [41]
You just have to multiply the percentage by the amount:
(150/100)×$63 
1.5×$63= $94.50
If you aren't allowed a calculator, then just find half of $63 (the 0.5 of the fraction) and add it to $63 (the 1. of the fraction).
$63÷2= $31.5
$63+$31.5= $94.50

Solve for x.<br> 8(x + 1) - 3(x + 4) = 7(2 - x)<br> Ox=11<br> Ox=-11<br> Ox= -1 1 /<br> Ox=11/
inna [77]

Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

8(x + 1) - 3(x + 4) = 7(2 - x) \\ 8 x + 8 - 3x - 12 = 14 - 7x \\ 8x - 3x + 7x = 14 - 8 + 12 \\ 12x = 18 \\ x =  \frac{18}{12} \\ x =  \frac{3}{2}  \\  x = 1.5

I thought of a number, added 3 2/7 to it, then I multiplied the result by 1 1/2 , and got 6 5/7 . What was my number?
Arisa [49]
I got 25/21 or 1 4/21, but there’s a possibility I could’ve made a mistake in my math so you should double check it just in case.
