Multiply all of those numbers
Step-by-step explanation:
1 dozen = 12 pears
12 pears = $36
1 pear = 36/12 = $3
Total Cost of Pears = No. of pears x price of 1 pear
= (5x12) x 3
= 60 x 3
= $180
Sale of Pears = Price per pear x (Total Pears bought - Rotten Pears)
= $4.50 x (5x12-7)
= $4.50 x 53
= $238.50
Profit/Loss = Sale of Pears - Total Cost of Pears
= $238.50 - $180
= $58.50
Ariana made a profit of $58.50.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Find the LCM of the denominators (2,4 and 8)
LCM = 8
→ Multiply the whole equation by 8 to get rid of the fractions
4x + 6 = 7
→ Minus 6 from both sides to isolate 4x
4x = 1
→ Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x

Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x+6(5x-18)=17
-5x+30x-108=17
25x-108=17
25x=17+108
25x=125
x=5
Let's translate the words into expressions:
11 less than 7 times a number is 
5 more than 6 times the number is 
So we have the equation

Subtract 6x from both sides:

Add 11 to both sides:
