First, find how much he paid by tire.
To do so, divide what he paid by how many tires he bought like this :
240$ / 12 = 20$ per tire

Then, calculate how much he sells each tire.
To do so, start by calculating how much he paid for 3 tires:
20$ x 3 = 60$

This is the price he sells 2 tires for, therefore :
60$ / 2 = 30$
he sells his tires 30$ each.

Finally, you have to calculate the profit he made by selling 12.
We already know how much it cost, so you need to find how much money he gets selling them :
12 tires x 30$ = 360$

To find the profit, take off the amount he paid from the amount he made :
360$ - 240$ = 120$

There you go!

3. In a triangle, two angles have measures of 45°
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Triangles always have 180°, split in some manner between the three angles. With two of the three angles given, you can set up a relatively simple equation, where the third angle is assigned to the variable x:

45°+85°+x=180°

130°+x=180°

x=50°

8 times the sum of a number and 26 is less than 304.
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

x < 12

Step-by-step explanation:

So 8 times the sum of a number and 26 is less than 304. To find the number, lets write a equation where the "number" is x.
8 times the sum of a number and 26 can be written as 8 * x+26, however since the sum of x and 26 are being multiplied, we write this as 8(x+26). Since 8 times the sum of a number and 26 is less than 304, we set 8(x+26) to < 304. This gives us our equation:

8(x+26) < 304

Lets start to solve for x by dividing by 8, giving us:

x+26 < 38

Now lets isolate x by subtracting 26 from both sides, which gives us our answer:

x < 12

So x is less than 12.

Hope this helps!
