Carla sells cashews for $14 per pound. today he is dicounting the price by 20%. if carla buys 1 1/2 pounds of cashews at the discounted price, how much will she pay?

The price at discounted rate = $ 16.8  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in question as ,

The rate of cashews for selling = $14 per pound

Now Carla discounting the price by 20%

So , new price of cashews = 14 - (20% × 14)

Or,                                        =  14 ×

Or, New price of cashews =  $11.2 per pound

Again , Carla buys pounds of cashews at discounted price

∵ , cost of 1 pound cashews = $ 11.2

∴ , cost of pound = × $ 11.2

                                                             =

                                                             = $ 16.8

Hence the price at discounted rate = $ 16.8      Answer

n=9

step-by-step explanation:

7 times a number = 7n

decreased by 13 = 7n-13

same as is =

5 times the number = 5n

increased by 5 = 5n+5

7n-13 = 5n+5

2n=18

n=9
