Hello there

the answer is x=2

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−8=−7(−4x+8)+8(x−3)

−8=(−7)(−4x)+(−7)(8)+(8)(x)+(8)(−3)(Distribute)

−8=28x+−56+8x+−24

−8=(28x+8x)+(−56+−24)(Combine Like Terms)

−8=36x+−80

−8=36x−80

Step 2: Flip the equation.

36x−80=−8

Step 3: Add 80 to both sides.

36x−80+80=−8+80

36x=72

Step 4: Divide both sides by 36.

36x

x=2

Thank you

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The answers are:

For someone who is currently renting an apartment, he or she should be better off with rent control as long as they keep renting the same apartment. They will pay a lower price.
For someone who is moving to Lowell, he or she will be worse off because the quantity supplied for apartments on Lowell will decrease (price ceilings always decrease the quantity supplied). So it will be very hard for him to find a suitable apartment.
For the landlord that abides by the law, he will be worse off because he will lose money. He should be earning more money but due to the rent control, his earnings decrease.
For the landlord that decides to ignore the, he will eventually be worse off by his actions, since illegal activities always have a sour ending. He will eventually be caught and will probably have to pay a fine of some sort.

Setler [38]

Answer:

The net present value for each option is given below.

(1) $70,000 cash immediately

NPV = 70,000 * 1 = $ 70,000

(2) $24,000 cash immediately and a six-period annuity of $8,100 beginning one year from today, or

NPV = (24,000*1) + (8,100 *(1-((1+7%)^-6)/7%)) = $ 62,609

(3) a six-period annuity of $14,500 beginning one year from today

NPV = (14,500 *(1-((1+7%)^-6)/7%)) = $ 69,115
