Answer: 53.65
Step-by-step explanation
First you need to write out the equation
37 x .45 = 16.65
Then you take 16.65 which is the percent mark up and add it to the original price of $37 and you get your answer of 53.65
Add 3x to both sides
-3x+10=3x-8
+3x +3x
10=6x-8
+ 8 +8
18=6x
/ / (divide)
6. 6
3=x
Answer:
x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
-5( x + 3 ) = 20
Distributive property ( multiply whatever is in the parenthesis by -5)
-5 * x + -5 * 3 = 20
-5x - 15 = 20
Add 15 on both sides
-5x - 15 + 15 = 20 + 15
-5x = 35
Divide by -5 on both sides to isolate the variable
-5x/-5 = 35/-5
x = -7
Check...
Substitute the "x" with -7 since we already got that as our solution
-5( x + 3 ) = 20
-5( -7 + 3 ) = 20
Distributive property
-5 * -7 + -5 * 3 = 20
35 - 15 = 20
20 = 20 CORRECT
Hope this helped!
