To figure out the cost for 180 packages, you must first calculate how many packages they bought for $72. Since each case holds 12 packages, for $72, the company bought 24 packages (12×2). Then you have to divide 24 into 180 to figure out the cost for those 180 packages and get 7.5. To get the cost of the 180 packages, you must multiply 7.5 (the number of 24 packages that go into 180) by 72 (the cost of one group of 24 packages). You then get 540. The company must pay $540 for the 180 packages.

Stefan sells Jim a bicycle for $175 and a helmet for $17. The total cost for Jim is 160% of what Stefan spent originally to buy
Nady [450]

Answer:

Stefan spend $120 originally.

Stefan made $72 by selling bicycle and helmet to Jim.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of bicycle = $175

Cost of Helmet = $17

Percent of total cost of Jim = 160% of original cost of Stefan

We need to find the Amount Stefan spend originally and money he made by selling the bicycle and helmet to Jim.

Solution:

Let the Amount Stefan spend originally be 'x'.

Total Cost of Jim is equal to sum of Cost of bicycle and Cost of Helmet.

framing in equation form we get;

Total Cost of Jim = 175+17 =\$192

Now we know that;

Total Cost of Jim is equal to 160% of  Amount Stefan spend originally.

framing in equation form we get;

192 = \frac{160}{100}\times x\\\\192 =1.6x

Dividing both side by 1.6 we get;

\frac{192}{1.6}=\frac{1.6x}{1.6}\\\\x= \$120

Hence Stefan spend $120 originally.

Now we can say that;

Money Stefan made is equal to Money Stefan spend originally minus Total Cost of Jim.

framing in equation form we get;

Money Stefan made = 192-120 =\$72

Hence Stefan made $72 by selling bicycle and helmet to Jim.

I know you want to answer this question.
Alik [6]

Answer:

D. x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{2} ^{x-4} - 3 = 4^{x-3} - 2

First, convert 4^{x-3} to base 2:

4^{x-3} = (2^{2})^{x-3}

\frac{1}{2} ^{x-4} - 3 = (2^{2})^{x-3} - 2

Next, convert \frac{1}{2} ^{x-4} to base 2:

\frac{1}{2} ^{x-4} = (2^{-1})^{x-4}

(2^{-1})^{x-4} - 3 =  (2^{2})^{x-3} - 2

Apply exponent rule: (a^{b})^{c} = a^{bc}:

(2^{-1})^{x-4} = 2^{-1*(x-4)}

2^{-1*(x-4)} - 3 = (2^{2})^{x-3} - 2

Apply exponent rule: (a^{b})^{c} = a^{bc}:

(2^{2})^{x-3} = 2^{2(x-3)}

2^{-1*(x-4)} - 3 = 2^{2(x-3)} - 2

Apply exponent rule: a^{b+c} = a^{b}a^{c}:

2^{-1(x-4)} = 2^{-1x} * 2^{4}, 2^{2(x-3)} = 2^{2x} * 2^{-6}

2^{-1 * x} * 2^{4} - 3 = 2^{2x} * 2^{-6} - 2

Apply exponent rule: (a^{b})^{c} = a^{bc}:

2^{-1x} = (2^{x})^{-1}, 2^{2x} = (2^{x})^{2}

(2^{x})^{-1} * 2^{4} - 3 = (2^{x})^{2} * 2^{-6} - 2

Rewrite the equation with 2^{x} = u:

(u)^{-1} * 2^{4} - 3 = (u)^{2} * 2^{-6} - 2

Solve u^{-1} * 2^{4} - 3 = u^{2} * 2^{-6} - 2:

u^{-1} * 2^{4} - 3 = u^{2} * 2^{-6} - 2

Refine:

\frac{16}{u} - 3 = \frac{1}{64}u^{2} - 2

Add 3 to both sides:

\frac{16}{u} - 3 + 3 = \frac{1}{64}u^{2} - 2 + 3

Simplify:

\frac{16}{u} = \frac{1}{64}u^{2} + 1

Multiply by the Least Common Multiplier (64u):

\frac{16}{u} * 64u = \frac{1}{64}u^{2} + 1 * 64u

Simplify:

\frac{16}{u} * 64u = \frac{1}{64}u^{2} + 1 * 64u

Simplify \frac{16}{u} * 64u:

1024

Simplify \frac{1}{64}u^{2} * 64u:

u^{3}

Substitute:

1024 = u^{3} + 64u

Solve for u:

u = 8

Substitute back u = 2^{x}:

8 = 2^{x}

Solve for x:

x = 3
