Let's solve this problem step-by-step.
STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION:
Let the original price = x
To begin with, we will convert the word problem into an equation as displayed below:
( x / 2 ) - 8 = 18
Now, to find the original price we will simply make ( x ) the subject and solve accordingly as displayed below:
( x / 2 ) - 8 = 18
( x / 2 ) = 18 + 8
( x / 2 ) = 24
x = 24 × 2
x = $48
CHECKING THE ANSWER:
In order to check if the answer is correct, simply substitute the value of x into the original equation and solve. If the left-hand and right-hand side are equivalent, then the answer is correct as displayed below:
( x / 2 ) - 8 = 18
( 48 / 2 ) - 8 = 18
24 - 8 = 18
18 = 18
Therefore, the answer is:
x = $48
0.5 = 1/2 = 2/4 = 4/8 = 8/16 = 16/320.75 = 3/4 = 6/8 = 12/16 = 24/32
Then the fractions in between are 5/8, 9/16, 11/16, 17/32, 19/32, 21/32, 23/32
Answer:
69.20in
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
diagonal of the TV d= 55in
Widht of the TV w= 42 in
Hight h= ???
Applying the Pythagoras theorem
d^2= w^2+ h^2
substitute
55^2= 42^2+ h^2
3025= 1764+ h^2
3025+1764= h^2
4789= h^2
h=√4789
h= 69.20
Hence the Heigth is 69.20in

Answer:
7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
When 16 students are playing kickball, there are 16/16 students on the field. After 2 leave, this becomes 16-2/16, therefore 14/16 which is divisible by 2. and therefore 7/8, which the numerator and denominator have no common divisors.
