Melvise spent 40% of her clothing budget on a new dress that cost $112. how much did she have in her clothing budget to begin with?

The initial clothing budget was $280

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> initial clothing budget

we know that

$112 ----> represent the 40%  of the initial clothing budget

so

using proportion

Find out the amount that represent the 100% of the initial clothing budget

Her clothing budget was $280.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Melvise has a budget of $x for her clothing.

She spent 40% of her clothing budget on a new dress.

Therefore, amount of total clothing budget spent = 40% of x

= $0.40x

This amount spent on new dress is = $112

So the expression that represents the total amount spent on new dress will be

0.40x = 112

x =

x = $280

Her clothing budget was $280.

x = 10.1

step-by-step explanation:

all of the angles of a tirangle add up to 180º

180 - 65 = 115 (since we already know the value of one angle)

(2x + 7) + (8x + 7) = 115

(combins like terms) 10x + 14 = 115

(isolate the variable subtract 14 from both sides): 10x = 101

(find the variable divide both sides by 10): x = 101/10

x = 10.1

the k side
