Answer:
x=1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up the equation: 2x-1=0
Add one to both sides. 2x=1
Divide two by both sides: x=1/2
Therefore, x =1/2, or .5
Could you give me just one equation if you could?
Answer:
$78, $79.20
Step-by-step explanation:
PART A: $60 times 1.3 = $78
you add 30% to 100% to get 130% since it is a mark up, and then you convert to a decimal by going to the left twice then multiplying by original price.
PART B
Since it is a discount you subtract 15 percent from 100, but then add back 5 percent since there is tax applied to get 90%, convert to decimal and multiply by original price to get $88 x .9 = $79.20
The value would be 4.
First, you have to do 4 + 3 because it's in parenteces. This equals 7
Secondly, you have to do 2 x 7, which is 14.
Last you have to do 18 - 14 which is 4.
