Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x + 5(2x - 1) = -20 (Given)

-7x + 10x - 5 = -20 (Simplify)

3x - 5 = -20 (Simplify)

3x - 5 + 5 = -20 + 5 (Addition Property of Equality)

3x = -15 (Simplify)

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{-15}{3} (Division Property of Equality)

x = -5 (Simplify)

Kim purchased a dress that was originally $35. It was on sale for 30% off. She also bought a pair of shoes for 1/2 off the origi
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:  $34.32

Step-by-step explanation: We first calculate the price of the dress that was on sale. 30% of 35 is 35/10 x3. This is equal to 3.5x3 which is 7+3.5 = 10.5 We subtract this from 35 to get $24.5. So, the dress cost $24.5. Next 1/2 of 17 is 8.5. In total, the items cost $24.5+$8.5 = $33. Then, there is a 4% sales tax we have to add on to 33. 1% of 33 is 33/100 which is 0.33. This time 4 is 1.32. 33+1.32 is 34.32.
