Hello!
If the signs are the same, and you multiply or divide, the sign of the product or quotient will be positive. If the signs are different, the product or quotient will be negative.
2+3/5x-1-1/4x
2+3x-1/5-1-x/5
2+3/5x-1-x/5
1+3/5x-x/5
1+2/5x
Answer:
x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
so you tryna get x by itself, so you are gonna do the opposite. so move nine over by subtracting it.
-9=3x
now you have to divide -9 by 3 to move it over
-2=x
What we know: A dozen costs 1.32; there are 12 in a dozen.
What we need to know: How much a restaurant makes selling 1 egg at 0.99.
First, find the value of one egg; you can do that by dividing the total cost (1.32) by the amount (12):
1.32 / 12 = 0.11 <-- The cost per egg is 11 cents. To find the profit of the restaurant, just subtract the cost from the price they sell it for:
0.99 - 0.11 = 0.88 <-- The profit the restaurant makes per egg is 88 cents.
Hope this helps.
