 - 8 ( x + 2 )  + 5x  = - 4

Start by distributing.....

- 8 x - 16 + 5x = - 4

Combine like terms.....

     - 3 x - 16 = - 4

Add 16 to both sides.....

         - 3x = 12 

 Divide both sides by -3 to get x by its self.....

           x = - 4 is the answer

The price of a ring was decreased by 25% to £390. what was the price before the decrease?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The original price was 520

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we first need to note that we paid 75% of the price. This is because we took 25% off from the original. Now we take the price we paid and divide it by the percentage of it which we paid. This will give us the original price.

390/75% = Total

390/.75 = Total

520 = Total
