Alright, here it is
w=(q+p)/(q-pq)
factor out the q in the bottom part

w=(q+p)/[(q)(1-p)]
multiply both sides by q
wq=(q+p)/(1-p)
add 1 to both sides, but add (1-p)/(1-p) to the right side since that equals 1
wq+1=(q+1+p-p)/(1-p)=(q+1)/(1-p)
multiply both sdies by (1-p)
(wq+1)(1-p)=q+1
divide both sdies by (wq+1)
1-p=(q+1)/(wq+1)
subtract 1 from both sdies
-p=[(q+1)/(wq+1)]-1
multiply by -1
p=-[(q+1)/(wq+1)]+1 or
p= -\frac{(q+1)}{(wq+1)}+1

Find the selling price if the cost price is $360 and the gain is 12.5% on cost
mario62 [17]
It is important to note the details already given in the question. Based on those details the answer to the question can be easily determined. Now let us focus on the question given.
Cost price of the product in question = $360
Percentage of gain on the product = 12.5%
Then
amount of gain made on the product = (12.5/100) * 360 dollars
                                                           = 450/10 dollars
                                                           = 45 dollars
So
The selling price of the product in question = (360 + 45) dollars
                                                                     = 405 dollars

MrRissso [65]
1 hit in 5 times a bat
1/4 = .25
2/3 = .66
1/5 = .20
.25 + .66 + .20 = 1.16
1.16/3 = .38
This is closer than you would if you hit 2 hits in 4 times

What value of x makes this equation true x over 3 mines 3 equal x over 9 plus 3
trapecia [35]

x/3-3 =x/9+3

add 3 to each side

x/3 = x/9 +6

subtract x/9 from each side

x/3 -x/9 = 6

get a common denominator

3/3*x/3 -x/9 = 6

3x/9 -x/9 =6

2x/9 =6

multiply each side by 9/2

x = 54/2

x=27

How do you solve this equation ?
nata0808 [166]
The first step to solving this is to solve the equation for x
x = - 21/5 - y
4x + 4y = -14
now,, substitute the given value of x into the equation "4x + 4y = -14"
4( - 21/5 - y) + 4y = -14
next,, solve the equation for y
y∈∅
since this system has no solution for y, your answer is (x,y)∈∅
let me know if you have any further questions
