If c = the cost of one table, the cost of all 25 tables before sales tax is 25·c
Since the sales tax is 5%, or 0.05, the sales tax for 25 tables is 25·c·0.05
Adding the sales tax to the original cost of the 25 tables can give you:
25·c + 25·c·0.05 = 1706.25
1.05·25·c = 1706.25
26.25·c = 1706.25
c =
= 65
so the refund for 5 tables would be 5*65 = $325

Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- (x - 4) = - 2
Multiply both sides by 5 to eliminate the fraction
- (x - 4) = - 10 ← distribute parenthesis by - 1
- x + 4 = - 10 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
- x = - 14 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = 14
