x is 75% of y, which is 8 times the amount of 150% of z. What is x in terms of z?

None of the other answers

7.5z

6z

12z

9z

Explanation

Just take this step by step. First write out each equation:

x = 0.75y

y = 8(1.5z)

First, simplify the second equation:

y = 12z

Then, substitute y from this equation into the first:

x = 0.75(12z) = 9z
