Follow these steps:
-8.4b - 4.2 = 12.6
Add 4.2 on both sides:
-8.4b = 16.8
Divide by -8.4 on both sides to give you the final answer of:
b = -2
So you're answer is indeed correct! Hope this helps and that the steps are clear enough!
8,7,9,3,4,9,2
This is correct because I’m in middle school
Remark
Whatever the original price, he gets 70% in the first instance.
He gets 80% in the second instance.
He gets 90% in the third instance
His total income is 240 dollars.
Let the original price be x
Equation
70%x + 80%x +90%x = 240
70% = 0.7 ; 80% = 0.8 ;90% = 0.9
Solution
0.7x + 0.8x + 0.9x = 240 Take out x as a common factor and add the decimals.
x (0.7 + 0.8 + 0.9) = 240
2.4x = 240 Divide both sides by 2.4
x = 240/2.4
x = 100
So the watches should have brought in 3*100 = 300 dollars.
He only brought in 240 dollars.
He lost 300 - 240 = 60 dollars.
The answer is B.
Answer:
Below in bold.
Step-by-step explanation:
m < C = m < D = 64 degrees
m <A + m < D = 180
m < A + 64 = 180
m<A = 180 - 64 = 116 degrees.
m < B = m< A = 116 degrees.
2 2/3 + 1 3/5
= 2 10/15 + 1 9/15
= 3 19/15
= 4 4/15
answer is 4 4/15 (4 and 4/15)
