Answer:

least - $7

most - $12

Explanation:

if the price of a shirt is $12, she must have spent at least $24 on the shirts in total.

the least amount melissa could have spent on a skirt is:

($45 - $24) ÷ 3 = <u>$7</u>

and the most she could have spent is:

($60 - $24) ÷ 3 = <u>$12</u>

8. What is the solution to the equation 3x + 5(4x-6)-8= 3x - 14? a. x = 1 b. r = 1.7 d. There are no solutions to this equation.
Verdich [7]

3x+5(4x-6)-8=3x-14

Step-by-step explanation:

Cancel out the terms on both sides of the equation. (3x)

5(4x-6)-8=-14

Distribute 5 through the parentheses.

20x-30-8=-14

Calculate the difference.

20x-38=-14

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign.

20x=-14+28

Calculate the sum.

20x=24

Divide both sides of the equation by 20.

x=6/5, 1.2, or 1 1/5

Answer:

x=6/5, 1.2, or 1 1/5

Hope this helps! :)
