Given that a<span> local RadioShack store wants to buy a new line of plasma TVs. Manufacturer A offers chain discounts of 18/12, and Manufacturer B offers terms of 17/13.

Let the list price of the plasma TVs be x, then after a chain discount of 18/12 by Manufacturer A, the selling price of the plasma TVs will be (1 - 0.18)(1 - 0.12)x = 0.82(0.88)x = 0.7216x

Also, after the discount of 17/13 by manufacturer B, the selling price of the plasma TVs will be (1 - 0.17)(1 - 0.13)x = 0.83(0.87)x = 0.7221x

Thus, the final selling price after discount by manufacturer A is 0.7216 and the final selling price after dscount by manufacturer B is 0.7221x.

Therefore, Manufacturer A offers a </span><span>single equivalent discount rate that is the best deal.</span>

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4(x - 5) = 8x + 4 - 6x ← distribute left side and simplify right side

4x - 20 = 2x + 4 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

2x - 20 = 4 ( add 20 to both sides )

2x = 24 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 12
