Simplify both sides of the equation

4(x-3) = 7x+24

4x-12 = 7x+24

Subtract 7x from both sides

4x-12-7x= 7x+24-7x

-3x-12= 24

Add 12 to both sides

-3x-12+12 = 24+12

-3x=36

Divide both sides by -3

-3x/-3= 36/-3

x = -12

Answer : B

Spotlight Dance increased the number of dancers on its competition team. Last

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find percentage increase, we use the following formula:

Percentage Increase = $\frac{New-Old}{Old}*100$

Here

New means the latest value (which is 18 dancers)

Old means the previous value (which is 10 dancers)

The Multiplication by 100 is to convert the decimal answer to percentage.

So, we have:

New = 18

Old = 10

Now we substitute and find:

$\frac{New-Old}{Old}*100\\\frac{18-10}{10}*100\\\frac{8}{10}*100\\80$

So, there was an increase of 80%

Ted has $3.90. He has only dimes and quarters. He has 27 coins altogether. How many of each does he have

mestny [16]

Answer: 8 quarters 19 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

we already know 8+19=27, if 4 quarters equals a dollar then you use 4 quarters each to create 2 dollars.

then, use 10 dimes to create another dollar summing it up to $3. now all we have to do is make 90 cents, and we've already used 18 coins.
