Okay, think of it this way:
You have to find how many times 4,000 goes into 150,000.
This will tell you how many costumes you can buy.
To make this easier, we can divide 4 by 150. (this is proportional to 4,000 and 150,000 since we took 3 zeros from each number; you will get the same answer)
150/4= 37.5
You can buy 37 whole costumes.
Hope this helped!
3/2x - 4 = 16
Add 4 to both sides.
3/2x = 20
Multiply by 2/3.
x = 13 1/3
Answer:
He should work
hours in overtime.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represents the number of hours of regular time and y represents the number of hours of overtime,
Since, earnings are $24 per hour for regular time and $36 per hour for overtime,
Thus, total earning = (24x + 36y) dollars,
Here, x = 40 hours and total earning = $ 1200,
By substituting the values,
1200 = 24(40) + 36y
1200 = 960 + 36y
240 = 36y
⇒ 
Hence, he should work
hours in overtime.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, you are solving for n.
Solve:
−2p + 6n = 5
We have to get "n" by itself, so add 2p to both sides.
6n = 2p + 5
Since the variable "n" has a number next to it, we have to get rid of that number in order to get our answer.
To do so, we would divide both sides by 6.

Simplify the equation further.

You subtract 16 from each side of the equation.
Then it will say exactly what number 'n' is.
_______________________________________
The equation is n + 16 = 9
On the left side, you subtract 16 from (n + 16) and you have 'n'.
On the right side, you subtract 16 from 9 and you have -7 .
Now the equation says n = -7
