8/5x = 1
or
1.6x = 1
Work:
Add 7/3x and 1/3x to make 8/3x. Equation: 8/3x = 1 + 5/3x
Divide 8/3x by 5/3x, looks like 8 over 3 times 3 over 5. 3s cancel each other out, leaving 8/5x. Equation: 8/5x = 1
If needed to be simplified, 8/5 = 1.6.
<h3>Philipe has to make a weekly sales of $ 3000 so that he can earn $ 360</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Philipe works for a computer store that pays a 12% commission and no salary
We have to find his weekly sales have to be for him to earn $360
From given, we can say,
12 % of weekly sales will earn him $ 360
12 % of weekly sales = 360
Let "x" be the weekly sales
12 % of "x" = 360
Solve the above expression

Thus Philipe has to make a weekly sales of $ 3000 so that he can earn $ 360
Perimeter of a square: side length * 4, since squares have equal side lengths
Take 2x - 3 for the side length and plug it into the formula.
(2x - 3) * 4 can be rewritten as 4(2x - 3)
Distribute 4 inside the parentheses.
8x - 12 = perimeter of the square
