Answer:

x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start by distributing '2' from the parenthesis,

2x-16=x+5x

Now, lest group terms from variable 'x', for that, subtract -2x to both sides of equation,

-16=x+5x-2x

We have.

-16=4x

Isolating x, we have x=-4

Debbie solved the linear equation 3(x + 4) − 2 = 16 as follows: between what lines did she make an error? line 1 and line 2 line

Drupady [299]

The question is not clear because the Debbie solution lines are not visible. Nevertheless,
The correct solution for this linear equation is the following:
<span>3(x + 4) − 2 = 16
</span><span>3(x + 4) = 16 + 2
</span><span>3(x + 4) = 18
</span>(x + 4) = 18/3
(x + 4) = 6
x = 6 - 4
x = 2

The sales tax in your state is 5% if a car costs $24,600 what is the total cost including tax?

Svetach [21]

<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

$25830

Step-by-step explanation:

If 100% of the car price is 24,600 , then you can imagine that extra 5% being added to this

100 + 5 = 105

So you need to find what 105% of the cost was.

To do this you can use the percentage formula:

Amount x $\frac{percentage}{100}$

Now, you can simply plug the values into this

24,600 x $\frac{105}{100}$

24600 x 1.05 = 25830

<h3>So the total cost including tax would be $25830!</h3><h3 /><h2>Hope this helps!</h2>
