Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
2b + 8 − 5b + 3 = −13 + 8b − 5
Reorder like terms.
2b-5b+8+3=8b-13-5
Combine those like terms. Then solve.
-3b+11=8b-18
-11 -11
-3b=8b-29
-8b -8b
-11b=-29
/-11 /-11
b=2.64

Answer:
Rational number
Step-by-step explanation:
If a number is expressed in the form of p/q then it is a rational number. Here p and q are integers, and q is not equal to 0. A rational number should have a numerator and denominator.
I can solve with 2 methods:
I. Because the discount is 15 % of 18 $ , the price will be (100-15=85) 85 % of 18 $
18*85/100= 15,3 $ ( the sale price)
II. The discount is 15 % of 18$
15*18/100= 2,7$ ( the discount)
then I decrease it from the regularly price
18$-2,7$=15,3 $ (the sale price)
Personally I believe the first is an easier method.
I hope you understand and you can apply this in every similary problem.
