3x = 4(x-2.25)

3x = 4x-9

add 9 to both sides

3x+9 =4x

subtract 3 x from each side

x=9

Tonya's items were $9 each

Tony's items were 9-2.25 = 6.75 each

check:

9*3=27

4 *6.75 = 27

The answer to your math problem is C. The reason being is 2x times x is 2x^2 and 2x times 11 is 22x. So you first part of the problem looks like 2x^2+22. Then -6 times x is -6x and -6 times 11 is -66. So now the problem is 2x^2+22x-6x-66. So your answer after solving it is 2x^2+16x-66.

Which of these division problems have the same quotient as 12.3 divided by 0.4? Check all that apply.
Orlov [11]

Answer:

The answer is A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is A because 12.3 multiplied by 10 is 123, and 0.4 multiplied by 10 is 4.

12.3 * 10 = 123

0.4 * 10 = 4

So, this shows that this equation is the same as 12.3 divided by 0.4

The answer is C because 12.3 multiplied by 100 is equal to 1230, this is the same for 0.4

12.3 * 100 = 1230

0.4 * 100 = 40

So, the answer is both A and C.

Hope this helps! :)
