Isolate the x.

Do the opposite of PEMDAS. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.

2/3x - 2 = 7

Add 2 to both sides

2/3x - 2 (+2) = 7 (+2)

2/3x = 9

Multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

2/3x(3/2) = 9(3/2)

x = 9(3/2)

Multiply 9 with 3, and divide by 2

9 x 3 = 27
27/2 = 13.5

x = 13.5 is your answer

hope this helps

hannah and mallory are selling boxes of cookies for a school fundraiser. each box costs the same amount. hannah sells 14 boxes.
aleksley [76]

The cost per box of cookies is $3.75

The total amount Hannah raised from the sales of cookies is $52.50

The total amount Mallory raised from the sales of cookies and donations is $88.50

In order to determine the cost per box of cookies, take the following steps:

The first step is to determine the total sum of the boxes sold by Hannah and Mallory

Sum of the boxes sold = 14 + 22 = 36 boxes

36 boxes were sold by Hannah and Mallory

The second step is to determine the total cost of the 36 boxes sold.

Total cost of 36 boxes = total amount raised - donation

$141 - $6 = $135

The third step is to determine the total cost of each box

cost of one box = total cost of 36 boxes / total number of boxes

135 / 36 = $3.75

The total amount Hannah raised = cost per box x number of boxes she sold

14 x $3.75 = $52.50

The total amount Mallory raised = amount raised from the sale of cookies + donation

amount raised from sales = cost per box x number of boxes she sold

22 x $3.75 = $82.50

Total amount = $82.50 + $6 = $88.50

400 ml squash is made by mixing 50 ml of cordial with water. what fraction of the drink is water?give your answer in its simples
Tasya [4]

squash = cordial + water

400 ml = 50 ml + x ml

350 ml = x ml

Therefore, 350 ml are water.

350 ml / 400 ml = 0.875 = \frac{350}{400} = \frac{35}{40} = \frac{7}{8}

So the answer is 7 / 8
