For this problem, I'd use cross-multiplication.
9/12 = x/8.
When cross multiplying, multiply 12*x and 9*8. This leads to a new equation:
12x = 72.
Then you solve as an algebra problem.
*Divide 12 on both sides*
x = 6.
Answer:
x=-0.08 and y=2.92
Step-by-step explanation:
123x + 2(x+3) = -4 y = -0.08 + 3
123x + 2x + 6 = -4 = 2.92
125x + 6 = -4
125x = -10
x= -0.08
Let the number be xy ,
xy = 10x + y. when reversed = yx = 10y + x
x = 2y ........(a)
10x + y + 10y + x = 66.........(b)
10(2y) + y + 10y + 2y = 66
20y + y + 10y + 2y = 66
33y = 66
y = 66/33
y = 2
x = 2y = 2*2 = 4
Recall the original number is xy = 42.
Answer:
$216435
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Suppose homes in a big city increase in value 13% every year.
To Find: How much will a home that cost $150,000 be worth 3 years later?
Solution:
Principal = $150000
Rate = 13% =0.13
Time = 3 years
Formula : 
Now substitute the values in the formula
So, The cost of home after 3 years will be $216435
Hence Option B is true
