Answer:

$37

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the total amount of money spent is $398, and that he bought a $250 suit and 4 shirts of some price we can call x.

This gives us an equation: $4x+250=398$

Subtracting 250 from both sides: $4x=148$

Dividing both sides by 4: $x=37$

Thus, each shirt costs $37.

When 2/3 of a number is increased by 20, the sum is then halved, the result obtained is the same as 2/3 of the number, increased

aleksklad [387]

$\frac{2/3x+20}{2} =\frac{2}{3} x+3\\\frac{2/3x+20}{2} - 3 = \frac{2}{3}x\\\frac{2/3x+20}{2} - \frac{6}{2} = \frac{2}{3}x\\\frac{2/3x+20-6}{2} = \frac{2}{3}x\\\frac{2/3x+14}{2} = \frac{2}{3}x\\2(\frac{2/3x+14}{2}) = 2(\frac{2}{3}x)\\2/3x+14=\frac{4}{3}x\\14=\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{2}{3}x\\14=\frac{2}{3}x\\\frac{14}{1}/\frac{2}{3}=x\\\frac{14}{1}*\frac{3}{2}=x\\7*3=x\\x=21$

The number is 21.

Suppose you drive a car 392 mi on a tank of gas. The tank holds 14 gallons. The number of miles traveled vaties directly with th

Serhud [2]

Preliminary Problem

Givens

Miles = m = 392 miles

Gallons = G = 14 gallons

Miles per gallon = mpg

Formula

miles = miles per gallon * number of gallons.

Solve

392 = mpg * 14 Divide by 14

392 / 14 = mpg

28 = mpg which is really quite good. Our vehicle gets 44 mpg but it's a 4 cylinder. It's meant to get that kind of milage.

Part A

Let x = the number of gallons used

Let y = the number of miles driven

y = k*x

Part B

y = k* x

k =28 mpg

11700 = 28*x

11700 /28 = x

x = 417.86

If this is incorrect please put some more facts in. The question does not seem complete.
