Answer: x = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

(x / 2) - 8 = 16

1/2x - 8 = 16

x - 16 = 32

x = 32 + 16

x = 48

Answer:

x=48.

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's make an equation out of this.

x

--   -   8   =    16

2

The first thing that we do it add 8 on both sides of the equation. So now we have.

x

--   =  24

2

Up next is to multiply 2 by both sides of the equation so that we get the equation of...

x = 48.

WHY CAN'T ANYONE HELP ME? 1. In Michigan, the sales tax rate is 6%. Suppose that an item costs $50.88 including tax. How can we
Aliun [14]

Answer: $48

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that in Michigan, the sales tax rate is 6% and that an item costs $50.88 including tax.

Let the cost of the item before tax be x. This means that x plus 6% of x equals to $50.88. This can be mathematically expressed as:

x + (6% of x) = $50.88

x + (6/100 × x) = $50.88

x + (0.06 × x) = $50.88

x + 0.06x = $50.88

1.06x = $50.88

When then divide by the coefficient of x

1.06x/1.06 = #50.88/1.06

x = $48

The price before the tax is $48
