115/100 = 11.50/x

Cross multiply.

115x = 11500
11500/115 = 10.00
Before 15% Tax, it was 10 dollars.

Since 4 nights cost $356, 356÷4=89, so one night costs $89. 7-4=3, so 89×3 is 267. 267+356 is 623. The total cost for 7 nights would be $623

Solve the equation: 5|2x-7|=20

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

x = $\frac{11}{2}$ , $\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, isolate the absolute value:

5|2x - 7| = 20

divide both sides by 5:

|2x - 7| = 4

break into 2 equations:

2x - 7 = 4, 2x - 7 = -4

solve both equations and collect solutions:

2x = 11, 2x = 3

x = $\frac{11}{2}$ , $\frac{3}{2}$

The difference of n and 7 is no more than 12. Find all possible values of n.

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

-5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29

7-12= -5

7+12= 29

-5 ≤ n ≤ 29 or -5 ≤ n < 30 or -6< n ≤ 29 or -6 < n < 30

either one is acceptable. question was not clear but i did my best! :)
