Answer:

The correct answer is:

y= x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation: 8 = x-y

By clearing the equation for y (subtracting x both sides of equation) we have:

8 - x = -y (1)

Multiplying (1) by -1

-8+x = y (2)

Re-arranging (2), finally we have:

y= x-8

-2(8p+2)-3(2-7p)-2(4+2p)=0

zysi [14]

-2(8p+2)-3(2-7p)-2(4+2p)=0

mutiply the first bracket by -2

(-2)(8p)= -16p

(-2)(+2)= -4

mutiply the second bracket by -3

(-3)(2)= -6

(-3)(-7p)= 21p

mutiply the third bracket by -2

(-2)(4)= -8

(-2)(+2p)= -4p

-16p-4-6+21p-8-4p= 0

-16p+21p-4p-4-6-8= 0 ( combine like terms)

5p-4p-4-6-8= 0

p-4-6-8= 0

p-10-8= 0

p-18= 0

move -18 to the other side to get p by itself

sign changes from -18 to +18

p-18+18= 0+18

p= 0+18

Answer: p= 18

Cayden wants to buy a television that costs $600, including taxes. To pay for the television, he will use a payment plan that re

kobusy [5.1K]

well, the regular cost of the TV is 600 bucks, that includes taxes already, so is just 600 flat.

the payment plan makes Cayden pay 225 first, leaving 375 for periodic payments for 6 months, each payment of 74.50.

well, 74.5*6 = 447, so Cayden is paying 225 + 447 = 672, so the increase is 72 bucks.

If we take 600 to be the 100%, how much is 72 off of it in percentage?

$\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 600&100\\ 72&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{600}{72}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{25}{3}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 25x=300\implies x=\cfrac{300}{25}\implies x=12$
