There would be 84 students in the science club
Answer:
x=-18
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 3 on both sides
2x=-36
divide by 2 on each side to get..
x=-18
$74.68
10 percent of $124.46 is $12.446 when you multiply that by 4 you get $49.784 then you just have to subtract
$124.46
- 49.784
_________

paint set = $21.00
Completed question:
Madison brought $42.50 to the art supply store. She bought a brush, a sketchbook, and a paint set. The brush was 1/4 as much as the sketchbook, and the sketchbook cost 2/3 the cost of the paint set. Madison had $4.00 left over after buying these items. How much is each item.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x,y and z represent the price of brush, sketchbook and paint set respectively.
The brush was 1/4 as much as the sketchbook,
x = 1/4 × y
y = 4x ....1
the sketchbook cost 2/3 the cost of the paint set
y = 2/3 × z
3y = 2z
z = 3y/2
Substituting equation 1
z = 3(4x)/2 =6x
z = 6x ....2
Total amount spent = amount he brought - amount he left with(remainder)
= $42.50 - $4.00
= $38.50
Total amount spent = x+y+z = $38.50
x+y+z = 38.50
Substituting equation 1 and 2
x + 4x + 6x = 38.50
11x = 38.50
x = 38.50/11
x = 3.5
y = 4x = 4(3.5) = 14
z = 6x = 6(3.5) = 21
Amount spent on each item is;
brush = $3.50
sketchbook = $14.00
paint set = $21.00
