Answer:
<h2>x = 7</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
x + 20 = 5x + -8
Reorder the terms:
20 + x = 5x + -8
Reorder the terms:
20 + x = -8 + 5x
Solving
20 + x = -8 + 5x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.
20 + x + -5x = -8 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: x + -5x = -4x
20 + -4x = -8 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0
20 + -4x = -8 + 0
20 + -4x = -8
Add '-20' to each side of the equation.
20 + -20 + -4x = -8 + -20
Combine like terms: 20 + -20 = 0
0 + -4x = -8 + -20
-4x = -8 + -20
Combine like terms: -8 + -20 = -28
-4x = -28
Divide each side by '-4'.
x = 7
Simplifying
x = 7
2 * x/100 = 8
x/100 = 4
x = 400
400%
Answer:
2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find how much he paid by tire.
To do so, divide what he paid by how many tires he bought like this :
240$ / 12 = 20$ per tire
Then, calculate how much he sells each tire.
To do so, start by calculating how much he paid for 3 tires:
20$ x 3 = 60$
This is the price he sells 2 tires for, therefore :
60$ / 2 = 30$
he sells his tires 30$ each.
Finally, you have to calculate the profit he made by selling 12.
We already know how much it cost, so you need to find how much money he gets selling them :
12 tires x 30$ = 360$
To find the profit, take off the amount he paid from the amount he made :
360$ - 240$ = 120$
There you go!
Answer:
The second one
