6 more than 5 times a number is 26. What is the number?
lubasha [3.4K]
Hey there!
We'll define "the number" as x. We know that "is" signifies an equals sign and therefore an equation, and we're going to be adding six to five times x. Therefore, we have:
5x + 6 = 26
Add -6 to both sides:
5x = 20
Divide both sides by 5 to get:
x = 4
So, 4 is the number.
Hope this helps!

aivan3 [116]

<u>ANSWER: </u>

The total cost of the skate board is $74.61.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given, Luis wants to buy a skateboard that usually sells for $79.99. all merchandise is discounted by 12%. luis has to pay a state sales tax of 6.75%.  

We need to find what is the total cost of the skateboard.

Final cost is nothing but original amount subtracted by discount and added with tax.

final cost = original cost – discount + sales tax

Original cost = $79.99

Discount = 12% of original cost

\begin{array}{l}{=12 \% \times 79.99} \\\\ {=\frac{12}{100} \times 79.99} \\\\ {=\frac{959.88}{100}} \\\\ {=9.5988}\end{array}

discount is $9.6 approximately

Sales tax = 6% of cost after discounting

\begin{array}{l}{=6 \% \times \text { (original cost - discount) }} \\\\ {=\frac{6}{100} \times(79.99-9.6)} \\\\ {=\frac{6}{100} \times(70.39)} \\\\ {=\frac{422.34}{100}} \\\\ {=4.2234}\end{array}

Sales tax is $4.22 approximately

Now, final cost = 79.99 – 9.6 + 4.22

= 84.21 - 9.6

= 74.61

Hence, the total cost of the skate board is $74.61

Help please 25 pts. I will mark. One month Justin rented 2 movies and 5 video games for a total of $32. The next month he rented
umka21 [38]

Answer:

The movie costs $3.50 and the video games cost $5.

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 1 movie

b = 1 video game

2a + 5b = $32

8a + 3b = $43

2a x -4 = -8a

5b x -4 = -20b

32 x -4 = -128

   8a + 3b = $43

-   8a + 20b = $128

--------------------------------

-17b = -85

17b = 85

/17     /17

b = 5

2a + 5(5) = 32

2a + 25 = 32

-       25 = -25

----------------------

2a = 7

/2 = /2

a = 3.5

a = $3.50

b = $5
