Answer: X=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Using PEMDAS;
Step 1: Distribute the "3" in the part of the equation "3(x-2)"
3x - 6
Step 2: Consider the equation as a whole with the newly part of the equation from step 1, as it is a part of the equation
Therefore, re-written as,
3x - 6 + 48 = -3x
Step 3: Evaluate the re-written equation
Using basic mathematics skills, we can evaluate the following,
3x - 6 + 48 = -3x ➡ -6 + 48 = -6x ➡ 42 = -6x ➡ -7 = x
As shown, the answer is x=-7.
Given:
cat carrier : 39.99
cat tower: 19.99
1st discount : 5%
2nd discount: 15% - cat tower
39.99 * 5% = 1.99
39.99 - 1.99 = 38
19.99 * (5% + 15%) = 19.99 * 20% = 3.99
19.99 - 3.99 = 16
38 + 16 = 54

Answer:
a. Fraction of earnings that Mariano put into each piggy bank is 1/12
b. Mariano earns $28.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Mariano divides his earning in a saving account and 3 piggy banks.
First , we have to know the fraction that we divide in the 3 piggy banks.
Piggy banks =Total earning-Saving account
Saving account 3/4,
Total earning is 1
to rest both term we have to get the same denominator , so we can say that the total earning is 4/4
Piggy banks =4/4-3/4=( 4-3)/4=1/4
Piggy banks =1/4
Each piggy bank will be 1/3 of that 1/4
1/3 x 1/4=
For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get
1×1/3×4=1/12
This fraction cannot be reduced.
b. Mariano adds $2.40
1/12 is 2.40
total earning is ?
We use cross-multiplication
a/b=c/d replacing (1/12)/2.40 = 1/ ?
So, the total earning (?) is 1 x 2.40/ (1/12)
= 2.40 x 12=$28.8
If we say that side "a" is the shortest (adjacent), side "b" is the second shortest (opposite), and side "c" is the longest (hypotenuse): then angle A would be 30°, angle B would be 60°, and angle C would be 90°
tan B = b/a
or
a tan B = b
they have 4 as the smallest value in all four options, so we know that
a=44 tan 60° = b
tan 60° = √3
so, 4 tan 60° = 4√3
b=4√3that leaves two options left, so now we find "c":
c^2 = (a^2) + (b^2)
OR
so
a=4, b=4√3, and c=8
Making your answer
B
