Step-by-step explanation:
- 5x+12=6x+7 (opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal)
- 12=x+7 (subtract 5x from both sides)
- x=5 (subtract 7 from both sides)
- Now put x in any of the equations-- 5(5)+12=37 or 6(5) +7=37
Price decrease = 14.3% of $52,000 = 0.143*$52,000 = $7,436
Price of next model = $52,000-$7,436 = $44,564
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum the 3 consecutive integers and equate to 36
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 36
3x + 6 = 36 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
3x = 30 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 10
The 3 consecutive integers are
10, 10 + 2, 10 + 4, that is
10, 12, 14
