The price of the book case before sales tax is 347.76 . First you multiply 378 x .08 =30.24
Then you subtract: 378-30.24= 347.76

$<span>347.76 would be your answer, you first need to find 8% of 378 which was 30.24 then you need to subtract that from 378 and that gives you your answer!

Answer:

$x = - 4 \\ x = - 7$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x {}^{2} + 28 = - 11x \\ x {}^{2} + 11x + 28 = 0 \\ x {}^{2} + 7x + 4x + 28 = 0 \\ x(x + 7) + 4(x + 7) = 0 \\ (x + 4)(x + 7) = 0 \\ \\ x = - 4 \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \: x = - 7$
