Answer:

New cars sold = 20,

Used cars sold = 25

Cars serviced = 290

Step-by-step explanation:

In a month they sold fifteen less used cars than twice the number of new cars.

Lets say 'x' number of new cars were sold, then:

The number of used car sold is:

2\times x-15=2x-15

In the same month they serviced fifty more than twelve times the number of new cars sold. So the number of cars serviced is:

12\times x+50=12x+50

Altogether they sold or serviced 335 cars, so the sum of all the cars sold and serviced should be 335:

x+(2x-15)+(12x+15)=335

Solving for 'x' we get:

x+2x+12x-15+50=335

15x+35=335

15x=335-35=300

x=\frac{300}{15}=20

Therefore, the number of new cars sold in that month is 20.

Number of used car sold =2x-15=2\times 20-15=40-15=25

Number of cars serviced =12\times x+50=12\times20+50=240+50=290

We can also cross check by summing them up:

290+25+20=335

-1/2 +2=-x+7 how do you figure this out​
Feliz [49]

Answer:

x = 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.

-\frac{1}{2} +2=-x+7

-\frac{1}{2} +2= 1.5

1.5=-x+7

       -7    -7

-5.5 = -x

Divide both sides by -1.

5.5 = x

Your process is close!

Since 3/10 and 4/15 is the amount you missed you have to subtract that by 1.

1 - 0.3 = 0.70
1 - 0.26 = 0.74

So, you scored higher on the math quiz.

Hope this helps!
