If you use Y=x+ whatever number you will get your answer
Answer:
56.02 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Wanted x, the price before taxes and tip.
sales tax: x * 0.11
+
tip on sales tax: x * 0.11 * 0.2
+
tip on price: x * 0.2
= 0.332x
= 18.6 (presumption)
Therefore,
x = 18.6/0.332 = 56.02
-2(x + 3) = 8
Multiply -2 with x and 3
-2x -6 = 8
Now add 6 to both sides
-2x -6 = 8
+6 +8
-2x = 16
Lastly divide -2 from both sides to find x
-2x = 16
—— —-
-2x -2x
X = -8
