Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>To find "x"</u>, we need to <u>isolate it</u>. This means move "x" to the left side, and everything else to the right side.
When moving a number, do its <u>reverse operation</u> to the entire equation.
x + 9 = 2x - 3
x - 2x + 9 = 2x - 2x - 3 Subtract 2x from both sides
-x + 9 = -3
-x + 9 - 9 = -3 - 9 Subtract 9 from both sides
-x = -12
-x/-1 = -12/-1 Divide both sides by -1 to get rid of the negatives
x = 12 Final answer
Check your answer. Split the equation for the left and right sides. Substitute "x" for the answer "12".
LS: (left side)
x + 9
= 12 + 9 Add
= 21
RS: (right side)
2x - 3
= 2(12) - 3 Multiply before subtracting
= 24 - 3 Subtract
= 21
Both sides equal to 21 when "x" is 12.
LS = RS left side equals right side
Therefore the answer is correct.

Answer:
2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it's from a big square to a smaller square, the smaller number will be at the top. Also, use the same side to find the scale factor, but since this is a square and all sides of a square are equal, it doesn't matter but in other shapes it does so practice i guess:
Left side of big square: 5
Left side of small square: 2
So scale is 2/5
To confirm:
5 · 2/5 = 10/5 = 2, we're right
We calculate for the taxable income by subtracting the tax free allowance from the gross income.
Taxable income = Gross income - tax free allowanc
Taxable income = (£12,000 - <span>£6,475)
= </span><span>£5,525
Hence, the taxable income is equal to </span><span>£5,525.
Net income:
This would be equal to the gross income minus the amount of taxes to be paid.
Net income = Gross income - amount of tax to be paid
Net income = (</span><span>£12,000) - (0.20)($5,525)
Net income = $10,895
Therefore,
ANSWER: <em>$10,895</em></span>
