Answer:
the original price of the shoes is $75
Step-by-step explanation:
x * 1.08 = 81
x = 81 / 1.08 = 75
75 * 1.08 = 81
6(4x + 2) = 3(8x + 4)
Reorder the terms:
6(2 + 4x) = 3(8x + 4)
(2 * 6 + 4x * 6) = 3(8x + 4)
(12 + 24x) = 3(8x + 4)
Reorder the terms:
12 + 24x = 3(4 + 8x)
12 + 24x = (4 * 3 + 8x * 3)
12 + 24x = (12 + 24x)
Add '-12' to each side of the equation.
12 + -12 + 24x = 12 + -12 + 24x
Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
0 + 24x = 12 + -12 + 24x
24x = 12 + -12 + 24x
Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
24x = 0 + 24x
24x = 24x
Add '-24x' to each side of the equation.
24x + -24x = 24x + -24x
Combine like terms: 24x + -24x = 0
0 = 24x + -24x
Combine like terms: 24x + -24x = 0
0 = 0
Solving
0 = 0

Answer:
(c) √49
(d) 2.544544...(3-digit repeat)
Step-by-step explanation:
Square roots of perfect squares are rational, as are repeating decimals.
2 because if 1/2 of 8 is 4 and 1/4 of 8 is = to 1/2 of 4, then 1/4 of 8 must be 2.
