To work out the profit, firstly, you have to work out the cost of buying them, which is $15 multiplied by 100, which is $1500. You then have to work out what he sold them all at, which is $29.99 multiplied by 100, which is $2999. You then have to subtract $1500 from $2999, giving you $1499. Therefore, Ace made $1499 in profit.
Hope this helps :)
You have to distribute the 7 to x and 2 so :
7x+14=2x-1
Add one to both sides (inverse operations)
7x+14=2x-1
+1 +1
7x+15=2x
Cross Cancel by subtracting 7x from both sides
7x+15=2x
-7x -7x
15=-5x
Divide by -5
15/-5= -5/-5
X= -3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- 6x = 5x + 222
- 222 = 5x + 6x
11x = - 222
x = - 222 : 11
x = - 222/11
