The first step would be to simplify the parenthesis so the equation will be solvable. For example: 2x+3y+2(x-y) -3x becomes 2x+3y+2x-2y-3x. So now we can solve the equation and get our answer. The rules of the distributive property state that you add the numbers with similar variables. Example( I am using the equation) 2x+2x-3x equals x, 3y-2y equals y. So the final answer is x+y!

. A business-woman sold a gas cooker for $1209.60 making a profit of 12% on the cost price. Calculate the cost price of the gas
KiRa [710]

Answer:

$1080

Data given:

selling price (SP): $1209.60

percentage profit: 12%

To calculate out percentage profit

profit% = gain/cost price × 100

gain = selling price - cost price

hence we have:

(1209.60 - cost price)/cost price ×100 = 12

when we cross multiply

we have 12costprice = (1209.60×100)-(100×cost price)

12CP=120960-100CP

collect like terms

12CP+100CP = 120960

112CP=120960

divide both sides by the coefficient of CP

CP = $1080

Negitive 8 over 2 divided by 6 over negitive 3 = ??????
solmaris [256]

when you didve fractions flip the second one over and multiply

 so -8/2 divided by 6/-3 will become

-8/2 times -3/6

then multiple straight across so -8 x -3 = 24

over 6 time 2 = 12

 so you get 24/12 which equals 2
