<u>Define x:</u>
Let the first number be x.
1st number = x
2nd number = x + 1
3rd number = x + 2
<u>Construct equation:</u>
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 4(x + 1)
3x + 3 = 4(x + 1)
Answer: 3x + 3 = 4(x + 1)
well, what is 9,744/2,280? take that and move the decimal point two places to the right to find the answer.
Answer:
<h2><u>
15.12 is the discount</u></h2><h2><u>
68.88 is the sell price</u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
When you are taking off percentages from numbers, you first want to make the percent a number. This step is super simple. Just divide the 18 by 100
This gets you 0.18
Now multiply
84 * 0.18 = 15.12
So 15.12 is the discount
Then take 84 and subtract 15.12
84 - 15.12 = 68.88
So 68.88 is the sell price
Solving proportions<span> is simply a matter of stating the ratios as fractions, setting the two fractions equal to each other, cross-multiplying, and solving the resulting equation. You'll probably start out by just solving</span>
8
This is actually fairly simple. If you take the x-1 and set it equal to 0 you get 1. And if you plug that value into the x you get 8, which is the remainder. This is called the remainder value theorem.
