Answer:

x = -6; the number is -6!

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a somewhat wordy question, but it is actually easy to solve once you write it down!

It should look like this:

5x-2=7x+10

See? It's simple! Now we just solve from there.

5x-2=7x+10\\-2x-2=10\\-2x=12\\x=-6

Answer:

10=16[ by cost]

Step-by-step explanation: the cost of 10 chairs is x.

the cost 16 chairs is also x. 10x = 16x

4x is loss.

Profit or Gain = Selling price – Cost price. Loss = Cost price – Selling price. Profit Percentage = [Profit/C.P.]×100. Percentage Loss = [Loss/C.P.]×100.

In simple way, we can say that sp- cp[ when it is a gain], cp -sp[ when it is a loss]. here it is a loss as well as a gain. so do both according to the formula

Step-by-step explanation:

a full circle has 360°.

so, since each individual result is represented by an amount of degrees, the total sum of all results must be 360°.

labour = 360 - 136 - 34 - 54 - 14 = 122°

the fraction 122/360 represents the 183 votes for labour.

122/360 = 183

the fraction 1/1 = 1 then represents the total number of votes in the whole system.

61/180 = 183

1/180 = 3

1 = 3×180 = 540

540 pupils voted altogether.
