Hello there!

-2x - 41 = 5x - 6

Move the 41 over by adding 41 to both sides.

-2x = 5x + 35

Move the 5x by subtracting it from both sides.

-7x = 35

Divide by -7 to get x.

-7/-7 = 35/-7

x = -5

Therefore, x would equal -5.

Stan pays a 10% deposit to put a pool table on lay-by.

Answer:

$1431

Step-by-step explanation:

If Stan pays a 10% deposit, he pays $159. 10% of $1590 is simply 0.1 * 1590 = 159. Assuming this is the only amount he pays, he then simply needs to pay the full price minus $159. We can find this by simply subtracting 159 from 1590 to get 1431. Stan still needs to pay $1431.
