Three-fourths of a number increased by one-half
= 3/4 x + 1/2
So three-fourths of a number increased by one-half is equal to fourteen:
3/4 x + 1/2 = 14
Multiply both sides by 4
3x + 2 = 56
Subtract 2 from both sides
3x = 54
Divide both sides by 3
x = 18
Answer: The number is 18
Answer:
c = 160 - 3(45)
Step-by-step explanation:
if c = the number of characters left;
160 = maximum number of characters that can be used in a text
3*45 = number of characters in sentences already used. (There are 3 sentences of 45 characters.)
(# of char left) = (max # char) - (# char already used) so:
c = 160 - 3*(45)
c = 160 - 135
c = 25
52=2w+2l
52=2(l-8)+2l
52=2l-16+2l
52=4l-16
36=4l
l=9
Answer:
B) 1.15x, adding 15% to the cost of haircut is same as to multiply cost by 1.15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression = x + 15% of x
x + (15/100) x = x + 0.15x
= (1+ 0.15) x = 1.15x
15% = 0.15 , added to x = 1.15x
