Answer:
-12, -21
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the first number. Then the second is x-9. The other relation is ...
4x = 2(x-9) -6
2x = -24 . . . . . subtract 2x, simplify
x = -12
x-9 = -21
The first number is -12; the second number is -21.
9/100 is less because if we multiply 7/10 by 10 (to get an equivalent fraction with a denominator the same as the other fraction [100]) we get 70/100, which is way more than 9/100.
So, 7/10 is greater than 9/100
Hope this helps!
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!
Wouldnt it be 21 idk dont pay attention to me lol
