9/2{8-x}+36=102-5/2{3x+24}
you first use 9/2 to open brackets
9/2*8=36,
9/2*x=9/2x
36-9/2x=102-5/2{3x+24}
5/2*3x=15/2x+60
36-9/2x=-15/2x-60
36+60=15/2x+9/2x
96=12x you then divide and the answer obtained will be 8.
x=8

75 is 25% more than 60, but 60 is 20% less than 75, explain why?
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

15 goes into 60, 4 times (1 fourth is equal to 25%).

15 goes into 75, 5 times (1 fifth is equal to 20%)

So 75 is one fifth more because it has a value of 15 more, and 60 is 1 fourth less than 75 because its value is more minuscule and less is more.

If you don't understand this was quite the challenge to explain.

Three times the quantity five less than x, divided by the product of six and x
Elden [556K]

Answer:

\frac{3(x-5)}{6x}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

3(x-5)

The phrase "the product of six and x" means the number 6 multiplied by x

6x

therefore

The phrase" Three times the quantity five less than x, divided by the product of six and x" is equal to the quotient of 3(x-5) and 6x

\frac{3(x-5)}{6x}
