If 3x=y+z, y=6-7, and z+x=8, what is the value of y/z?

-4/25

Step-by-step explanation:

3x=y+z

y=6-7=-1

z+x=8

y/z=?

solution

3x=-1 + z

x= -1 + z\3 ...eq(*)

then, z= 8- x

z= 8 - (-1 +z)\3

z= 8 +(1- z )\3

z= 8+1\3 -z \3

= 24+1\3 - z\3

z=25\3-z\3

z+z\3=25\3

4z\3=25\3

4z=25

z=25/4

then,

25/4 +x = 8

x=8- 25/4

x= 32 - 25/4

x=7/4

so that,

y/z=-1 /25/4

=-4/25

72 is the answer to this problem

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

cost of 3 shirts if one cost at $8.50 is

cost of 2 dresses if one cost at $27.50 is  

cost of 1 pair of gold cuff at $17.50

so, total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is   $25.5+$55+$17.50=$98
