Answer:

x = (-158)/87

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

38 x + 7 x + 7 x + 7 x + 7×4 (x + 7) = 38

Hint: | Multiply 7 and 4 together.

7×4 = 28:

38 x + 7 x + 7 x + 7 x + 28 (x + 7) = 38

Hint: | Group like terms in 38 x + 7 x + 7 x + 7 x + 28 (x + 7).

Grouping like terms, 38 x + 7 x + 7 x + 7 x + 28 (x + 7) = 28 (x + 7) + (38 x + 7 x + 7 x + 7 x):

28 (x + 7) + (38 x + 7 x + 7 x + 7 x) = 38

Hint: | Add like terms in 38 x + 7 x + 7 x + 7 x.

38 x + 7 x + 7 x + 7 x = 59 x:

28 (x + 7) + 59 x = 38

Hint: | Distribute 28 over x + 7.

28 (x + 7) = 28 x + 196:

28 x + 196 + 59 x = 38

Hint: | Add like terms in 59 x + 28 x + 196.

28 x + 59 x = 87 x:

87 x + 196 = 38

Hint: | Isolate terms with x to the left hand side.

Subtract 196 from both sides:

87 x + (196 - 196) = 38 - 196

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

196 - 196 = 0:

87 x = 38 - 196

Hint: | Evaluate 38 - 196.

38 - 196 = -158:

87 x = -158

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides of 87 x = -158 by 87:

(87 x)/87 = (-158)/87

Hint: | Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.

87/87 = 1:

Answer: x = (-158)/87

statuscvo [17]
<span>you need to find the amount of years between now and when she wants to buy a home. 36-18= 18. then you take 18 and multiply is by %6. 18x%6 or 18x.06 =108% or 1.08. 

The discount prices for today's housing values compared to 18 years from now with a 6% increase per year would be 108% discount. </span>
