Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 6x + 12 = 3x - 18

2x + 12 = 3x - 18

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

8x - 3(2x - 4) = 3(x - 6)

Step 2: Solve for x

Distribute: 8x - 6x + 12 = 3x - 18

Combine like terms: 2x + 12 = 3x - 18

Subtract 2x on both sides: 12 = x - 18

Add 18 on both sides: 30 = x

A bag is on sale for $30. If the sale is 25% off, what was the original price of the bag? Explain your thinking

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

30x25/100

25%=7,5$

30+7,5$=37,5$

The original price was 37,5 because you had to first find out what was 25% in $ to then do the opposite of a sale since we are finding the original price so we have to add it to 30$ since 30$ was the price after the sale.

Hope this helps, have a good day!
