Answer:

32.72

Step-by-step explanation:

36.36/100

0.3636

0.3636 times 90 (I use 90 because 100-10=90) 10% tax, so 90% original cost.

32.72

How do u solve for x in the equation 3x+9=44-2x
WARRIOR [948]
3 x + 9 = 44 - 2 x

subtract 9 from both sides:

3 x + 9 - 9 =  44 - 2x - 9

3 x = -2 x +35

Add  2 x to both sides:

3 x + 2 x = -2 x + 35 + 2 x

5 x = 35

Divide both sides by 5 :

5x / 5 = 35/ 5

x = 7

hope this helps!

Make x the subject of formular y=5√x+3-4
pochemuha

Answer:

x={(y+1) / 5}²

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5√x +3 -4

⇒y = 5√x -1

add 1 on both sides

⇒ y + 1 = 5√x

divide both sides by 5

⇒(y+1) / 5   = (5√x) /5

⇒(y+1) / 5   = √x

now, square both sides

⇒{(y+1) / 5}²  = (√x)²

∴{(y+1) / 5}² = x
