Answer:
The answer is 7.2
You need to work out 15% of 48 which gives us 7.2

Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
3 + - 7
When you these signs together, + and -, or - and +, whatever order it is it remains the same
+ and - always becomes negative
Here you have 3 + - 7
The +- becomes negative (-)
You end up with 3 - 7, or -7 + 3, as the 3 is positive
-7 + 3 = -4
x = number of 1-cent stamps
y = number of 8-cent stamps
z = number of 12-cent stamps
We have 31 stamps all together, so x+y+z = 31.
"I have 4 more 1-cent stamps than 8-cent stamps" means we have the equation x = y+8. Whatever y is, add 8 to it to get x. Solve for y to get y = x-8.
You also have "twice as many one cent stamps as 12 cent stamps", so x = 2z. Solving for z gets you z = 0.5x
-------------
x+y+z = 31
x+x-8+z = 31 ... y replaced with x-8
x+x-8+0.5x = 31 ... plug in z = 0.5x
2.5x-8 = 31
2.5x = 31+8
2.5x = 39
x = 39/2.5
x = 15.6
Your teacher made a typo somewhere because we should get a positive whole number result for x (since x is a count of how many 1-cent stamps we have).
