Since sales tax goes after the discount, it would be 3 dollars and 20 cents. Taking 50 dollars and 20% is discounted (50*.2), which would be 10 dollars taken off. It would be 40 dollars shoes and then you apply sales tax by multiplying 40 by .08, giving you the amount of tax paid.
Answer:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
4(x−7)=2(x+3)
Simplify both sides of the equation.
4(x−7)=2(x+3)
4x+−28=2x+6
4x−28=2x+6
Subtract 2x from both sides.
4x−28−2x=2x+6−2x
x−28=6
Add 28 to both sides.
2x−28+28=6+28
2x=34
Divide both sides by 2.
2x/2 = 34/2
x = 17
