Solve for x. −2 = 3 9 x

The value of x is -2/39.

Step-by-step explanation:

          Your equation looks like -2 = 39x

-2 = 39x       Divide 39 on both sides to isolate the variable, x

-2/39 = x

You must isolate the variable in order to solve equations with variables.

Isolating variable is basically when you divide, multiply, add, or subtract to put a variable on ONLY one side of the equation.

total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is $98

step-by-step explanation:

given a united states citizen returning to the states declares the following items at the customs office: 3 shirts at $8.50 each 2 dresses at $27.50 each 1 pair of gold cuff links at $17.50 per pair. we have to find how much he pay
