Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

simlify 4/3 * (3x-12)

4x - 16 = 2x + 8

combine like terms, so subtract 2x by 4x

2x - 16= 8

then finish combining like terms, so 16 plus 8

2x = 24

divide 24 by 2

x = 12

Since Marnie has bought her car,the value has gone down 15%.If her car is 13000 right now,how much was it worth when she bought

Serggg [28]

Percentage of depreciation of the car that Marie bought = 15%
Present value of the car = 13000
Let us assume that the value of the car at the time of buying = x
So
The percentage valuation of the car now = (100 - 15) percent
= 85 percent
Then
(85/100) * x = 13000
85x = 13000 * 100
85x = 1300000
x = 1300000/85
= 15294.12
So the actual cost of the car is 15294.12. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

A rectangular prism has volume 4,800 cubic yards, length 20 yards, and height 40 yards. Find its width, in yards.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: 6 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply the length and the height to get 800. You know now that 800 times the width will be your volume, 4800. To find the width, divide the volume by 800, which is the length times the height. Check your work by doing 40 times 20 times 6. You get 4800, which is your volume, which means your correct!
