5- 1/2x= 12
⇒ -1/2x= 12-5
⇒ -1/2x= 7
⇒ x= 7/(-1/2)
⇒ x= 7* (-2/1)
⇒ x= -14

Final answer: x=-14~

Let's solve your equation step-by-step:

It's always easiest to rewrite the equation, so let's do that -

5 - 1/2x = 12

Step 1) Simplify both sides of the equation

-1/2x + 5 = 12

Step 2) Subtract 5 from both sides

-1/2x  = 7

Step 3) Multiply both sides by 2/(-1)

(2/-1) * (-1/2x) = (2/-1) * 7

x = -14

FINAL ANSWER --

x = -14

1. The weekly ad for a local grocery store advertises a 5 pound bag of organic apples for $13.95. Round each rate to the nearest
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

a)

$2.79 per pound.

$0.93 per apple.

b)

Unit price per pound is typically used because weight and size of every      apple is not same.

Step-by-step explanation:

5 pound bag of organic apples = $13.95

1 pound bag of organic apples = $13.95/5

                                                   = $2.79

The unit price of apples that cost $13.95 for 5 pounds is $12.79 per pound.

<em>As a general rule, 1 pound of apples is equal to: 4 small apples. 3 medium apples. 2 large apples. So, here we assume that apples are of medium size.</em>

3 apples cost = $2.79

<em>The unit price means 'what is the cost of 1 apple'</em>

1 apple cost    =$2.79/3

                       =$0.93

The unit price of apples that cost $2.79 for 3apples is $0.93 per apple.
