Answer:

x=11/4

Step-by-step explanation:

You want all of the x's on one side, so you can subtract 16x from both sides, so you get 16 = 4x+5. Then, you subtract 5 from both sides to get 4x = 11. Finally, you divide by 4 so you get x=11/4.

Answer:

x = 11/4

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this question  you will have to combine the variables and evaluate it.

16x+16= 20x +5

collecting the like terms

16 - 5  + 16x = 20x

16 - 5 = 20x - 16x

11 = 4x

divide   both sides by the coefficient of x which is 4

11/4 = 4x/4

x = 11/4

to check if your answer is correct , put the value of x = 11/4 into the question and you will see that the left handside equals the right handside.

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

There was 60% discount on the cow.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Cost of cow = $25
  • Latest price = $15

Discount can be calculated by dividing the latest price by the original price and multiplying by 100.

Thus,

percentage discount = 15/25 × 100

                                   = 0.6 × 100

                                    = 60%

Thus, there was 60% discount on the cow.
