28.80 + .20X = X
.20X = X - 28.80
1/5 = .20
X/5 = X -28.80
X = 5X - 144
Set the new X equal to the original X
28.80 + .20X = 5X - 144
172.8 + .20X = 5X
172.8 = 4.8X
36 = X
36$ is the original price
To check,
28.80 + (.20 x 36) = 36
28.80 + 7.2 = 36
36 = 36
8724/25 = 348.96
When you say "over" that means that it has to be divided that short subtraction sign that separates the numerator and the denominator and also means divide so I believe that if you divide you can find the decimal.
Answer:
Yes, you can use this inequality to find the numbers of cars required.
Step-by-step explanation:
12 + 3n > 28 where n = the number of cars required
3n > 28 -12
3n > 16
n > 5 1/3
Greater than 5 1/3 gives 6 cars.
The answer would be 1380000
