Answer:

x= -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property to simplify.

4x+2(4) = 3x-2(3)

Now, multiply.

4x+8 = 3x-6

Move the variable to one side, you do that by subtracting the smallest variable to both sides.

4x+8 = 3x-6

-3x -3x

Subtract 8 to both sides.

x+8= -6

-8 -8

x= -14

coldgirl [10]

You have to divide your total by 4 to figure out what 1/4 of the price would be. That makes 1/4 of the price $19,631.15 So really you could just do $78,524.60 x2 to figure out the 2x which is $157,049.20 and then do $19,631.15 x3 to figure out the 3/4 amount which is $58,893.45. Then add the two numbers to get $215, 942.65
