Answer:
D. 48
Step-by-step explanation:
We don't know the numbers of coupons sent to existing members and to potential members, but we know a relationship between the number.
They sent 5 times as many coupons to potential members as they did to existing members.
Let x = number of coupons sent to existing members.
Then 5x = number of coupons sent to potential members.
The total number of coupons sent was x + 5x = 6x
The total number of coupons sent was 288.
Therefore, 6x must equal 288 giving us an equation with a single variable.
6x = 288
x = 48
Answer: 48
The values of x are -22 and -2 and there are not extraneous solutions
<h3>How to solve the equation?</h3>
The equation is given as:
2|x + 7|= x - 8
Expand the absolute bracket
|2x + 14|= x - 8
Remove the absolute bracket
2x + 14 = x - 8 and 2x + 14 = -x + 8
Evaluate the like terms
x = -22 and 3x = -6
This gives
x = -22 and x = -2
Hence, the values of x are -22 and -2 and there are not extraneous solutions
