Answer:
The price of the computer is $1,152
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the price of the computer be $x
The first boy boy had 7/8 of this amount, the amount he has is thus 7/8 × $x = 7x/8
The second boy had 5/6 of what the first boy had. The amount of money he has is thus 5/6 × 7x/8 = 35x/48
Now, the addition of what they have is $696 more than what they need to pay. This amount is x+ 696
Mathematically, this can be represented as;
7x/8 + 35x/48 = x + 696
(42x + 35x)/48 = (x + 696)
77x/48 = (x + 696)
77x = 48(x + 696)
77x = 48x + 33408
77x - 48x = 33408
29x = 33, 408
x = 33,408/29
x = $1,152

To solve the following equations, we need to isolate the variable asked using inverse operations to solve equations.
Remember that addition and subtraction are inverse operations, as multiplication and division.
Therefore,
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of this line is -1 or -1/1, and to find the perpendicular slope you find the opposite of the reciprocal, which in this case would be 1/1 which simplifies to 1.
Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 × 2/3
= 1×3 = 1
2×2 = 4
Therefore,
1/2 × 2/3 = 1/4//
12! / 4!
= 1×2×3×4×5×6×7×8×9×10×11×12 / 1×2×3×4
= 5×6×7×8×9×10×11×12 = 19958400
