18 - 7x = -20.5
Subtract 18 from each side:
-7x = -38.5
Divide both sides by -7:
x = -38.5 / -7
x = -5.5 = 5 1/2

Answer:
The required equation is
4p = 2.24
And p = 0.56 [ where p is in $]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Selena buys 4 peaches that weight 1 pound in all.
Peaches are on sale for $2.24 per pound.
Since the total weight of peaches is 1 pound.
So the price of 4 peaches is $2.24.
Let p be the price of 1 peaches.
Then the price of 4 peaches is $(4×p)
= $4p
According to the problem,
4p = 2.24

⇒p=0.56 [ where p is in $]
The required equation is
4p = 2.24
And p = 0.56 [ where p is in $]
To work out the decrease, do original amount - new amount and then take that answer and divide it by the original amount, and then multiply by 100.
So you would do:
36.24 - 30.80 = 5.44
5.44 ÷ 36.24 × 100 = 15% to the nearest percent.
