Answer:

im pretty sure its -9

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation explained would look something like this...

-5x-22=23

so you would isolate the variable by first adding 22 to both sides and the dividing by -5 on both sides

-5x-22=23

    +22  +22

-5x/-5=45/-5

x=-9

Nelsons manufactures baseballs at a cost of $7.50 each with fixed costs of $10,000. If one baseball sells for $12, how many must
Allushta [10]
Profit = revenue - expenses
12000 = 12x - (7.50x + 10,000)
12,000 = 12x - 7.50x - 10,000
12,000 + 10,000 = 4.5x
22,000 = 4.5x
22,000 / 4.5 = x
4888.88 rounds to 4889 = x......4889 baseballs

18 is 12% of<br>what number​
stiks02 [169]

Answer: 150

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unknown number

12% of x= 18

that is; 12/100 * x = 18

12x/100 = 18

cross multiply

12x = 18 * 100

12x = 1800

divide both sides by 12

x = 1800/12

x = 150
