Answer: yes

Explanation: To decide whether 0 is a solution for

this equation, we can simply plug a 0 in for x.

If the statement holds true, then 0 is a solution.

Plugging in 0 for x, we have 3(0) + 8 = 5(0) + 8.

Now since anything times 0 is 0, we have 8 = 8.

Since 8 = 8 is a true statement, 0 is a solution.

Answer:

x=0, yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+8=5x+8

5x-3x+8=8

2x+8=8

2x=8-8

2x=0

x=0/2

x=0

Chase goes out to lunch. The bill, before tax and tip, was $11.90. A sales tax of 9% was added on. Chase tipped 17% on the amoun
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

$15.17

Step-by-step explanation:

First we calculate the value for the sales tax:

11.90 \times  \frac{9}{100 }  = 1.07

we then add the value for the sales tax ($1.07) to the initial bill:

11.90 + 1.07 = 12.97

We were instructed to calculate the tip after the sales tax was added so:

12.97 \times  \frac{17}{100}  = 2.20

after we will add the value for the tip to the value that we have for the bill ( this is the new value that includes the sales tax) to find the total cost:

12.97+ 2.20  = 15.17

<em>Therefore</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>total</em><em> </em><em>cost</em><em> </em><em>for</em><em> </em><em>his</em><em> </em><em>mean</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>$</em><em>15.17</em>

A box contains 5 plain pencils and 7 pens. A second box contains 4 color pencils and 4
Savatey [412]
5:7 (pencils to pens)

7/12 chance that a pen from the first box will be selected.

4:4 (colour pencils to crayons)

4/8 = 1/2 chance that a crayon from the second box will be selected.

The probability of picking both:

7/12 * 1/2 = 8/24 = 1/3

After solving an equation, you end up with integers on both sides of the equation. What can you interpret about the equation are
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

The equation is:

An identity

Has infinitely many solutions

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Because there is integers on both sides, we know that any attempts to fix this will either cause an identity, or a false numerical equation(an identity but <em>w r o n g</em>).(Note, an identity can either mean 2 = 2 or x = x).

Identities have infinite solutions, because it does not matter what you put in, the equation will always be true. False equations do not have a solution because they aren't even true equations.

Hope this helps!

A bracelet that normally sells for $30.00 is on sale for $25.50. What is the percent discount?
vekshin1

Answer:

15% off

Step-by-step explanation:

We know we paid $25.50 of the original $30. We can divide these two numbers \frac{25.5}{30}=0.85. This is means we paid 85% of the original price. The discount percentage is the remaining percentage from 85 to 100 which is 15. The pants were 15% off.
