HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
Answer:
-2(57+8) = 14 + 6x
step 1 -2 x 57 and -2 x 8 =
step 2 -114-16 = 14 + 6x
+16 +16
step 3 -114 = 30 + 6x
-30 -30
step 4 -144 = 6x
-144/6 6/6
x = -24
-2(5x + 8) = 14 + 6x
step 1 -2 x 5x and -2 x 8 =
-10x - 16 = 14 + 6x
step 2 -6x -6x
-16x -16 = 14
step 3 +16 +16
-16x = 30
step 4 -16/-16 30/-16
x= -15/8
That means that the discounts are the same
therfor 25% of original=180
multiply both sides by 4 or divide both sides by 0.25
original=720
the equation is
0.25 times original=180
and the original price is $720
