Answer:
8^2+x + 2^ 3x = 32^ 1/2
2^3(2+x) + 2^3x = 2^5^1/2
All two's will cancel out
3(2+x) + 3x = 5^1/2
6+3x + 3x = 5^1/2
6 +6x = 2.23
6x = 2.23 - 6
6x = -3.77
x = -3.77÷ 6
x = -0.63
(a). How much the T-shirt cost.
(b). 23=12+x
(c). 23-12=x; x= 11
(d) the T-shirt cost $11.
Answer: $499.00
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Wholesale cost + (20% of Wholesale cost) = Selling price
--> 1.20 × Wholesale cost = Selling price
Let x represent the Wholesale cost
1.2x = 598.80
<u>÷1.2 </u> <u>÷ 1.2 </u>
x = 499.00
5x = 2x + 9, where 5x > 0 and 2x + 9 > 0 ;
Then, 3x = 9 ;
Then, x = 3 ;
Verify : 5 × 3 = 2 × 3 + 9 ;correct !
5 × 3 > 0 ; correct !
2 × 3 + 9 > 0; correct !
