n=2
8+8(8-n)=40+8n (distribute 8 through the parenthesis)
8+64-8n=40-8n (add the numbers)
<em>72-</em>8n=40+8n (move the variable to the left side and change its sign)
<em>72</em><em>-</em>8n+8n=40
-8n+8n=40<em>-72</em> (connect like terms)
-16n = -32 (divide both sides by -16)

Answer:
$18.96
Step-by-step explanation:
Now the mechanics earn $14.2 per hour, which is 25.1% less than before.
If we say that the earnings before were 100% (to facilitate our calculation and understand better), now the earrings are (100-25.1)%=74.9%. This is, now they make the 74.9% of what they used to made.
So:
74.9% = 14.2
Let's multiply both sides by 100%/74.9% to make a 100% appear at the left side (see that multiply and divide by 74.9 will make it desapear):
74.9% *(100%/74.9%) = 14.2 * (100%/74.9%)
100% = 14.2 * (100%/74.9%)
And (100%/74.9%) is equal to 1/0.749, they are the same. So:
100% = 14.2 * 1/0.749
100% = 18.96
So, before the new manager they used to make $18.96. (you can verify by multiplying it by 74.9% and the result is 14.2)
