Step One - List the factors of 60.
Step Two - Locate the factors that are seven apart from each other.

Factors of 60:
1 × 60
2 × 30
3 × 20
4 × 15
5 × 12
6 × 10

60 - 1 = 59
30 - 2 = 28
20 - 3 = 17
15 - 4 = 11
12 - 5 = 7
10 - 6 = 4

5 is 7 less than 12, and 60 is their least common multiple.

Answer: 5 and 12

A pair of shoes usally sells for $68. If the shoes are 20% off, and sales tax is 7%, what is the total price of the shoes, inclu

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

$50.59

Step-by-step explanation:

First you take off 20% from 68. ( 68 * 0.2 = 13.6 )

68- 13.6 is 54.4

for the sales tax, you take out 7% of 54.4

54.4 * 0.07 = 3.808

54.4-3.808 = 50.59!

Help asap my last question GIVING BRAINLIST!!!!

Alex

Answer:

1) $x < 0$

2) $x > 0$

3) $x < 10$

4) $x < -\frac{31}{55}$

5) $x \geq 0$

6) $x \geq -1$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) $-3 > 2x -3$

$2x- 3 < -3$

$2x - 3 + 3 < -3 +3$

$2x < 0$

$\frac{2x}{2} < \frac{0}{2}$

$x < 0$

2) $5 > -x + 5$

$-x + 5 < 5$

$- x + 5 -5 < 5 - 5$

$-x < 0$

$\frac{-x}{-1} < \frac{0}{-1}$

$x > 0$

3) $\frac{x}{5} -2 < 0$

$5 \times (\frac{x}{5} - 2 ) \times 5 < 0$

$x - 10 < 0$

$x -10 + 10 < 0 +10$

$x < 10$

4) $-5x + 11 > 31$

$-5x \cdot 11 < 31$

$-55x < 31$

$\frac{-55x}{-55} > \frac{31}{-55}$

$x < -\frac{31}{55}$

5) $\frac{1}{2}x - 4 \geq -4$

$\frac{1}{2}x -4 +4 \geq -4 +4$

$\frac{1}{2}x \geq 0$

$\frac{\frac{1}{2}x }{\frac{1}{2} } \geq \frac{0}{\frac{1}{2} }$

$x \geq 0$

6) $-4x + 2 \leq 6$

$-4x +2 - 2 \leq 6 -2$

$-4x < 4$

$\frac{-4x}{-4} \leq \frac{4}{-4}$

$x \geq -1$

Amy is 9 years older than her brother john. their combined age is 23. write an expression to represent johns age (use x)

dedylja [7]

Let x the age of John
Amy's age = x + 9
from question, we get,
John's age + Amy's age = 23
x+(x+9)= 23
=> x + x + 9 = 23
=> 2x = 23 - 9
=> x = 14/2
=> x = 7
