Answer:

Either £16 or £26.32 depending on what you meant in the question

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to answer the question in 2 ways, since I'm not sure if you mean £14 or 14%

If its £14, then the original price is 30-14 = £16

If its 14% then that means after the increase, the shirt will be 100%+14% of the original price or 114% of the original price.

This means that

£30 = 114%

To make it easier, reduce the 114% to 1 %

1% = 30/114

1% = £0.26316

100% = £26.32 (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Therefore the original price was £26.32

So the increased price is 30 and it was increased by 14
So the cost before was 30 - 14 = 16

Answer:

C = (2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

B = (10 ; 2)

M = (6 ; 2)

C = (x ; y )

|___________|___________|

B (10;2)            M (6;2)             C ( x; y)

So:

dBM = dMC

√[(2-2)^2 + (6-10)^2] = √[(y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2]

(2-2)^2 - (6-10)^2 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2

0 + (-4)^2 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2

16 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2

16 - (x - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2

Also:

2*dBM = dBC

2*√[(2-2)^2 + (6-10)^2] = √[(y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2]

4*[(0)^2 + (-4)^2] = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2

4*(16) = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2

64 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2

64 = 16 - (x - 6)^2 + (x - 10)^2

48 = (x - 10)^2 - (x - 6)^2

48 = x^2 - 20*x + 100 - x^2 + 12*x - 36

48 = - 20*x + 100 + 12*x - 36

8*x = 16

x = 2

Thus:

16 - (x - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2

16 - (2 - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2

16 - (-4)^2 = (y-2)^2

16 - 16 = (y-2)^2

0 =  (y-2)^2

0 = y - 2

2 = y

⇒ C = (2,2)

3(x-1) - 8 = 4(1+x) +5. Too hard, i keep getting confused
svet-max [94.6K]

3(x-1)-8=4(1+x)+5  

One solution was found :

                  x = -20

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    3*(x-1)-8-(4*(1+x)+5)=0  

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 ((3•(x-1))-8)-(4•(x+1)+5)  = 0  

Step  2  :

Equation at the end of step  2  :

 (3 • (x - 1) -  8) -  (4x + 9)  = 0  

Step  3  :

Step  4  :

Pulling out like terms :

4.1     Pull out like factors :

  -x - 20  =   -1 • (x + 20)  

Equation at the end of step  4  :

 -x - 20  = 0  

Step  5  :

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

5.1      Solve  :    -x-20 = 0  

Add  20  to both sides of the equation :  

                     -x = 20

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  x = -20

One solution was found :

                  x = -20

hope this is wht u wanted

Solve by factoring:<br>4x² - 8x=0​
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x² - 8x= 0​

4x(x -2) = 0

: 4x = 0 or x - 2 = 0

4x = 0

Dividing by 4

x = 0/4

x = 0

And

x - 2 = 0

x = 2
