Answer:

x = 6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 3/5 + 2 = 5

<u>Add 3/5 and -2 on both sides.</u>

3x = 5 + 3/5 - 2

3x = 18/5

<u>Divide 3 on both sides.</u>

x = 18/5 ÷ 3

x = 18/15

x = 6/5

Answer:

The value of x in the given equation is 6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 3/5 + 2 = 5

Combine -3/5 and 2.

3x + 7/5 = 5

Subtract 7/5 from 5.

3x = 18/5

Divide 18/5 by 3.

<u>x = 6/5</u>

To check ourselves, let's pug in 6/5 for x in the equation.

<em>3(6/5) - 3/5 + 2 = 5</em>

<em>18/5 - 3/5 + 2 = 5</em>

<em>15/5 + 2 = 5</em>

<em>3 + 2 = 5</em>

<em>5 = 5</em>

A person bought some cosmetics from wholesale market at the rate of Rs 360 per dozen he sells it at Rs 80 a pair find the gain p
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

33.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to calculate the <u>unit selling price and cost of each cosmetics.</u>

If a person bought some cosmetics from wholesale market at the rate of Rs 360 per dozen., then for 1 cosmetics, we will say;

x = 1 cosmetic

since 360 = 12 cosmetic

cross multiply

12x = 360

x = 360/12

x = 30

Hence the unit cost price of the cosmetics will be Rs. 30

Similarly, if he sells it at Rs 80 a pair, then he sold one cosmetic at 80/2 = Rs. 40 (a pair is 2 cosmetics)

Selling price per unit = Rs. 40

Cost price per unit = Rs. 30

percent gain = SP-CP/CP * 100%

percent gain = 40-30/30 * 100

percent gain = 10/30 * 100

percent gain = 100/3

percent gain = 33.33%

Hence the percentage gain is 33.33%
