First let's get X to one side by subtracting 4x from both sides. (5x-4x) -6 = 8. x-6=8. Now we add 6 to both sides to isolate "x". x=8+6=14. Our answer is x=14.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

$848

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for the cost of this familiy's clothing in 1991

First step is to calculate the amount that is increase per year

Increase per year= ($1000-$620)/(1995-1985)

Increase per year= 380/10

Increase per year= $38

Now let y be :38*x + $620 and let x be 6 years (1991-1985)

Second step is to calculate the cost of the clothing in 1991

y = 38*6 + 620

y=228+620

y = $848

Therefore the cost of this familiy's clothing in 1991 will be $848
