So since 2/5 of the washing machines have been sold that means 3/5 remain in the store
first find the number of washing machines that were in the store before any were sold
X is the number of washing machines in the store before selling
18=(3/5)X
18/(3/5)=X
X=18*(5/3)
X=30
so at the beginning there were 30 machines
then multiply the percent sold (2/5) by the number at beginning to find the number sold
(2/5)*30=12
so 12 machines were sold
to find the cost per machine divide the total price by number of machines sold so
$3840/12= $320
so the answer is $320 per machine
Plug in the given numbers (x) to the equation.
For example, let's take the first value it gives us.
-10(-2) +y=4
20+y=4
y=-16
Then you would put that on the table, and plug in the next value(s).
Hope this helped!
$72 To find out how much the sweater is without 20% off, you need to do this formula:
$60 x 20%
The answer is $12.
So, 20% of $60 is $12.
Now, you need to add 60 and 12 together to get the original sale price.
60 + 12
The answer is 72.
So the original price for the sweater is <span>72 dollars.</span>
Heather invested $2,200 at 9% and invested $3,700 at 4%
What represents the amount invested in each asset?
The amount invested at 9% can be represented as x whereas the balance invested at 4% is (5900-x), as a result, the interest earned on each is computed thus:
Interest 9%=x*9%
interest at 9%=0.09x
Interest at 4%=(5900-x)*4%
interest at 4%=236-0.04x
Total interest=0.09x+236-0.04x
total interest=0.05x+236
Total interest earned=346
346=0.05x+236
346-236=0.05x
110=0.05x
x=110/0.05
x=$2,200(invested at 9%)
amount invested at 4%=5900-2200
amount invested at 4%=$3,700
