56 divided 7/8 to find out how many paper clips it is then multiply how many there is times 0.03. the total cost of the paper clips is $1.92
LA = NA = MA
5x - 1 = 6x - 3
-x = -2
x = 2
LA = 5x - 1
LA = 5(2) - 1 = 9
NA = 9
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
MQ : MN = 5:6
MP : MO = 5:6
MQ/MN = 5/6
Hence, MP/MO = 5/6
(5+x)/(6+(18/5)) = 5/6
5+x = (5/6)(48/5)
5+x = 8
x = 3
(x-2) + (x-1) + x + (x+1) + (x-2) + (x+3) = 447
6x + 3 = 447
6x = 447 - 3
6x = 444
x = 444/6
x = 74
