Answer:

The answer would be x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3x+6)=42

so what you're gonna do is use the distributive property, so you would multiply 2 and 3x, and 2 and 6. so then you would have:

6x+12=42

Now you want to get rid of the twelve so you can solve for x. So you are going to subtract 12 from 12 and 42. So now you have:

6x=30

Next you're going to divide 6x and 30 by 6. So you would have x=5

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3x + 6) = 42

(3x + 6) = 42/2

(3x + 6) = 21

3x + 6  = 21

3x  =  21 - 6

3x  =  15

x = 1/3

x = 5

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Chester would receive a discount of $2.87 on using the coupon.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Original cost of shirt = $28.70

Discount =

\dfrac{1}{10}\text{ of the original price}

We have to find the discount Chester would receive from using this coupon.

Discount amount =

=\dfrac{1}{10}\times \text{Original Price}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{10}\times 28.70\\\\=2.87

Thus, Chester would receive a discount of $2.87 on using the coupon.
