Answer:
NOPE
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4a + 1/3a +8 =22
1st step add like terms:
1/4a +1/3a = 3/12a +4/12a = 7/12a
7/12a +8 =22
2nd step subtract 8 from each side:
7/12a = 14
3rd step divide both sides by 7/12 to get a:
a = 14 / 7/12
a = 24
8x+15=7
answer: x= 1 hope this help
I hope I am reading the problem right: The price of a mountain bike increased by 20% in the past year. The value is $150. What was the value of the mountain bike last year?
Let's simplify this. One year, there was this radical mountain bike that used to have an unsaid price, <em>x. </em>That year, that price of x increased by 20% more than it was before, or <em>120% times the original value</em>. Because of that, it's now $150.
We can equation this.
1.20x = 150
x = 150/1.2
x = 125
The bike, I believe, cost $125 last year. Hope this helps!
