I did the box method and my answer was 64x2 x_sqaured minus 16
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
90/100 * x = 15750
0.9 x = 15750
x = 15750/0.9
x = 17500
Now check this by taking 10% off. Do you get 15750?
Let's see
10/100 of 17500 = 1750
Subtract that from 17500
17500 - 1750 = 15750 which is exactly what you should get.
f) 16 - p = 12 minus 12
4 - p = 0 plus p
p = 4
g) 18 - 2p = 6 divide by -2
-9 + p = -3 plus 9
p = 6
h) p x 2 + 4 = 9 divided by 2
p + 2 = 4.5 minus 2
p = 2.5
i) p x 4 - 3 = 1 plus 3
p x 4 = 4 divided by 4
p = 1
