5(x-8)-(x+6)=18
5x-40-x-6=18
4x-46=18
4x=18+46
4x=64
x=16
not sure if this is correct but i hope it helps!!!

Answer:
(a) 39,208
(b) 65%
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The car loses 10% the first year and 15% the second year so that’s 35% lost in total after two years.
35% of 60,320 is 21,112
60,320 - 21,112 = 39,208
39,208 ÷ 60,320 = 0.65 (65%)
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
(2x-9)(2x+9)
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a difference of squares because it can be written as (2x)^2-9^2
The formula for factoring a difference of squares is a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)
So replace a with 2x and b with 9 giving us
4x^2-81=(2x-9)(2x+9)
