Answer: $8.49

To solve this problem, you want to find out how much 15% of 9.99 is. To do that you have to multiply 9.99 by 0.15 (which equals 1.4985) to find out how much the shirt was discounted. Then take that number and subtract 9.99 from it which gives you 8.4915 (or $8.49 rounded)

Hope this helped you!

Solution of the equation<br> 3x/5+1=4x/15+7
Anika [276]

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{3x}{5} + 1 = \frac{4x}{15} + 7 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

\frac{3x}{5} = \frac{4x}{15} + 6

Multiply through by 15 to clear the fractions

9x = 4x + 90 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

5x = 90 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 18

X=2
2x-3=-x+3

add three to both sides
add 1x to each side
should be left with 3x=6
divide both sides by 3 to get x alone
your answer then is x=2
