X+2/4 = 3/8 solve for x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anna007 [38]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<h3>X=-1/8=-0.125</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x on one side of the equation.

x+2/4=3/8

2/4=1/2 (First, use the common factor of 2.)

x+1/2=3/8

x+1/2-1/2=3/8-1/2 (Then, subtract 1/2 from both sides.)

3/8-1/2 (Solve.)

3/8-1/2=-1/8

-1/8=-0.125

x=-1/8=-0.125

In conclusion, the final answer is x=-1/8=-0.125.

The manufacturer of widgets spends $5 to make each widget and sells them for $8. The manufacturer also has fixed costs each mont
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

400

Step-by-step explanation:

The manufacturer spends $5 to make each widget and sells them for $8.  This means that each widget gives him a profit of $3.

8 - 5 = 3

You need to figure out how many widgets it will take for the manufacturer to make up for the costs each month ($1200).

3x = 1200

(3x)/3 = 1200/3

x = 400

The manufacturer needs to sell 400 widgets.

Does anyone know how to do this ?
goldenfox [79]

Answer: D) 32

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a parallelogram equals its base times its height. Substitute the base and area into this formula to solve for the height:

A=bh

40=(5)(h)

h=8

If ABCD is a parallelogram, opposite sides are parallel, so AB is parallel to DC. If AB is parallel to DC, EB is parallel to DC. Since EB is parallel to DC, quadrilateral EBCD has at least one pair of parallel sides, making it a trapezoid. The area of a trapezoid is equal to \frac{h(b_{1}+b_{2})  }{2} where h is the height, b_{1} is one base, and b_{2} is the other base. Plug the necessary values into the formula:

A=\frac{h(b_{1}+b_{2})  }{2}

b_{1} =AB-AE\\DC=AB\\b_{1} =DC-AE\\b_{1} =5-2\\b_{1} =3

b_{2} =5

h=8

A=\frac{8(3+5)}{2}

A=32

The answer is D) 32.

At the end of year 1, Boller Co. had an ending balance in allowance for uncollectible accounts of $30,000. During year 2, Boller
Masja [62]

Answer:

$34,000

Step-by-step explanation:

First they had 30,000

Then wrote off 40,000

So balance is 30,000 - 40,000 = -10,000

Now, they want 8% of 300,000 as uncollectible. So that would be

0.08 * 300,000 = 24,000

Thus, to bring the balance to 24,000 [balance is -10,000], how much would they need to add?? Let it be x:

-10,000 + x = 24,000

x = 24,000 + 10,000 = $34,000
