Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do is get x by itself.

1/4(8x - 4) = 5x + 8 <u>Distribute 1/4 to 8x and -4.</u>

2x - 1 = 5x + 8 <u>Subtract 5x on both sides.</u>

-3x -1 = 8 <u>Add -1 to both sides.</u>

-3x = 9 <u>Divide -3 on both sides.</u>

x = -3

Martin finds a shirt on sale for 20% off at a department store. The original price was $20. Martin must also pay a 7.5% sales ta
mars1129 [50]

Answer: You will pay $13.52 for this shirt.

Step-by-step explanation: 0.9435

Since the tax is 7.5%, you have to multiply 12.58 by 7.5% to find the amount of money paid as tax.

7.5% = 0.075

12.58 x 0.075 = 0.9435

Since we are dealing with money we have to round to the nearest hundredth -- 0.9435 = 0.94

Then to find the final cost of the shirt, we have to add 12.58 and 0.94 to get  $13.52.
