Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

so first distribute the 3/4 to everything on the inside

3/4x + 1 1/2 = 9

now subtract 1 1/2 on both sides

3/4x = 7 1/2

Now divide both sides by 3/4

x = 7 1/2 divided by 3/4

x = 15/2 divided by 3/4

x = 15/2 times 4/3

x = 5/1 times 2/1

x = 10

rosijanka [135]

<h2>Answer:37 paintings of $50 and 15 paintings of $75</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ be the number of paintings Ella sells for $ $50$ .

Let $y$ be the number of paintings Ella sells for $ $75$ .

Profit made through $ $50$ paintings is $50x$

Profit made through $ $75$ paintings is $75y$

So,total profit is given by $50x+75y$

It is given that total profit is $ $2975$

So, $50x+75y=2975$ ..(i)

Given that the total number of prints is $52$

So, $x+y=52$ ..(ii)

using (i) and (ii),

$50x+75(52-x)=2975\\50x+3900-75x=2975\\25x=925\\x=37$

$y=52-x=52-37=15$

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

43.16 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

After each hour, the amount remaining is 100% - 12% = 0.88 times the amount present at the beginning of the hour. Then after 8 hours, the amount remaining will be the initial amount multiplied by 0.88 eight times, or ...

(120 mg)·(0.88^8) ≈ 43.1561 mg ≈ 43.16 mg

Of course, an exponent is used to signify repeated multiplication. You can actually do the multiplication if you like, but most scientific and graphing calculators handle exponentiation easily.
