Answer:

The answer would be 2.7. Am not very sure though

Step-by-step explanation:

So what you do is

for example the unkown number is x and the answer you get is y

12-x=y * -15=-140

-140/-15=9.33 (this is y the answer)

12-x=9.3

12-9.3=2.7

To check your answer

12-2.7=9.3

9.3 * -15=-139.5 if you round it then it would be -140

Resolver 3 -2x=12 -6x
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

x = 9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x.  Start by adding 6x to both sides, which results in 3 + 4x = 12.

Combine the constants, obtaining 4x = 9.

Dividing both sides by 4, we get x = 9/4.

X and Y are in partnership with capital contributions of $50000 and $30000 respectively.
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. $13,875.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since X and Y are in partnership with capital contributions of $ 50000 and $ 30000 respectively, and the partnership agreement provides that profits are to be shared in proportion to capital contributions and each partner is entitled to 10% interest on capital, and profit for the year was $ 37000, to determine what was the total amount credited to Y’s current account at the end of the year the following calculation must be performed:

50,000 + 30,000 = 80,000

80,000 = 100

30,000 = X

30,000 x 100 / 80,000 = X

37.5 = X

37,000 x 0.375 = X

13.875 = X
