Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the -2 to the parentheses:

-2(-4x - 3) -5x + 3 = -3

8x + 6 - 5x + 3 = -3

Add like terms:

3x + 9 = -3

Solve for x:

3x = -12

x = -4

So, the answer is x = -4

<h2>○=> <u>Correct option</u> :</h2>

$\color{plum} \bold{ \tt \: \bold{C. \$20,652.00}}$

<h3>○=> <u>Steps to derive correct option</u> :</h3>

Selling price of a car = $19,000

Percentage of sales tax in the city = 8.3%

Sales tax :

$= \tt \frac{8.3}{10 \times 100} \times 1900$

$= \tt \frac{8.3 \times 19000}{1000}$

$= \tt \frac{1577000}{1000}$

$\color{plum} = \tt \$1577$

Thus, the sales tax on the car = $1577

Cost of license and title = $75

Total price of car :

= Cost price of car + Sales tax + cost of license/title

$= \tt19000 + 1577 + 75$

$\color{plum} = \tt \$20652$

Thus, the total purchase price of the car = $20,652.00

Therefore, the correct option is <em>(C) $20,652.00</em>
