The answer is x = 12.
Cross multiply:
3(x + 2) = 7(x - 6)
3x + 6 = 7x - 42
Switch sides:
3x - 7x = -6 - 42
-4x = -48
x = -48/-4
x = 12
The correct option is: D.
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
As the price of each meat package is same that is $12.99, so the <u>best deal will be when the weight of the package will be greatest</u>.
The weight are and pounds. For finding the fraction which has greatest value, first we will <u>convert them into improper fraction and then make their denominators same. LCM of the denominators is 1320</u>. So......
We can see that 3795 is the greatest numerator. So, has the greatest value.
Thus, the best deal will be pounds.
When n is multiplied by -5/8 and the product is equal to -4, it's really saying
-5/8n = -4
To solve an equation like this we can use properties of equality
For this problem there is only one step, being dividing both sides by -5/8
-4 divided by -5/8 = 32/5
Answer: 32/5 or 6 2/5
I hope this helps!
