Answer:
Last year the cost was $28.
This year the cost is $36.
$36 - $28 = $8
Percent of increase = amount of increase ÷ original amount
$8/$28 = $0.286
$0.286 · 100 = 28.6%
There has been a 28.6% of change in the cost.
This question is false, there are no solutions, even if u take away the x and make it multiplication instead of a variable, still no solutions exist
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
5=(−4)(8)+b
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
5=(−4)(8)+b
5=−32+b
5=b−32
Step 2: Flip the equation.
b−32=5
Step 3: Add 32 to both sides.
b−32+32=5+32
b=37
