Step-by-step explanation:

1200x6%(.06)=72

72x4=288

1200+288=1488

1200+72=1272+72=1344+72=1416+72=1488

Answer from: AdoNice

You can use many methods, I like to use the multiplier method for these questions. 6% = 0.06. Because it increase you add it to 1, if it decreased you’d subtract from 1. So 1200 x 1.06^ 4 (to the power of 4). 1514.972352. But because you can’t half a decimal of a person you’d round it to the next whole number so 1515.

Answer from: Quest

starting with:

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7

5 + x - 12 - x = 2x - 7 - x (subtract x from both sides)

5 - 12 = x - 7 (combine and cancel x's from both sides)

5 - 12 + 7 = x - 7 + 7 (add 7 to both sides)

0 = x (add numbers together on both sides)

so in order for the equation to be true, x must be 0.

trying x = -0.5

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)

5 + -0.5 - 12 = 2(-0.5) - 7 (plug in value of x)

5 + -0.5 - 12 = -1 - 7 (did multiplication)

-7.5 = -8 (did addition on both sides)

since -7.5 is obviously not equal to -8, the value of -0.5 for x is wrong.

trying x = 0

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)

5 + 0 - 12 = 2(0) - 7 (plug in value of x)

5 + 0 - 12 = 0 - 7 (did multiplication)

-7 = -7 (did addition on both sides)

since -7 equals -7, that demonstrates that the value of 0 for x is correct.

trying x = 1

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)

5 + 1 - 12 = 2(1) - 7 (plug in value of x)

5 + 1 - 12 = 2 - 7 (did multiplication)

-6 = -5 (did addition on both sides)

since -6 is obviously not equal to -5, the value of 1 for x is wrong.

step-by-step explanation:

these are your clues: 1. kim ran 18 races2. this was four fewer races than twice thenumber, notice it says twice the number, so you would do the equation 18x2-4; which equals the number 32.thus, 32 is your answer.
