I don't know. But I know how to find it. Let's work it out together:

5x = 2x + 20

Subtract 2x from each side: 3x = 20

Divide each side by 3 : x = 20/3 or ( 6 and 2/3 ).

Jesse buys a necklace that is on sale for 25% off the original price is 119.50 if tax is 7% what is the total price that Jesse w

trapecia [35]

Answer:

$95.89875

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of the necklace is 119.5. And we are subtracting 25% from this. 119.5 - 25% = 119.5 - 1/4 since 25% is 25/100 which is also 1/4.

So without tax, the price of the necklace is 119.5 - 29.875 which is 89.625.

The tax is 7%. So we should add 89.625 to 7%. This is complicated, but it should result in 95.89875.

If we round this to the nearest cent, it should be $95.9.

4^3sqrt(3x-3)^2+2=38

vlada-n [284]

Here, 4³√(3x-3)² + 2 = 38

= 4³ (3x - 3) = 38 - 2

= 192x - 192 = 36

= 192x = 192 + 36

= x = 228/192

= x = 1.1875 [ Final Answer ]

Hope this helps!
