7(x4) = 8-x

x= -2

your first step would be to move your 3x to the other side of the equation by adding 3x to both sides after this your equation should look as follows: 7(4+x)+3x=8 2nd: you should distribute your 7 to the numbers inside of the parentheses and combine like terms to get 10x+28=8 then you move your 28 to the other side by subtracting 28 and you will get 10x=-20 divide by ten to get the answer which is x=-2

Edit: Sorry for the answer before. I realised my mistake.

nasty-shy [4]

Answer: the actual amount that Luke paid including tax is $55.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial price of the jacket is $75.

Luke bought a jacket that was 30% off the cost. This means that the amount of discount on the Jacket is

30/100 × 75 = 0.3 × 75 = $22.5

The price of the jacket after the discount had been applied is

75 - 22.5 = $52.5

He paid sales tax of 6% after the discount had been applied. This means that the amount of sales tax that he paid on the jacket is

6/100 × 52.5 = 0.06 × 52.5 = 3.15

Therefore, the actual amount that Luke paid including tax is

52.5 + 3.15 = $55.65

Walden’s family is shopping for a reclining chair. The chair the family decided on has a retail price of $800 plus 5% sales tax
Marianna [84]

Answer:

B 10% off sale, with a total price to pay of 756

Step-by-step explanation:

Retail price (Rp) = $800

Taxes (T) = 5%

  • Offer A $75 instant rebate

Total price A (TA) = Rp - 75 + (Rp - 75) 5%

TA = 800 - 75 + (800-75) 5%

TA = 725 + 725 5%

725 5% = 725*5/100 = 36.25

TA= 725+36.25 = $761.25

  • Offer B 10% off sale

Total price B (TB) = RP - RP 10% + (RP - RP 10%) 5%

TB = 800 - 800 10% + (800 - 800 10%) 5%

800 10% = 800*10/100 = 80

TB = 800 - 80 + (800 - 80) 5%

TB = 720 + 720 5%

720 5% = 720*5/100 = 36

TB = 720 + 36 = $756

  • Offer C 5% off sale plus store pays sales tax

store pays sales tax means Walden's family will not need pay for taxes

Total price C (TC) = RP - RP 5%

TC = 800 - 800 5%

800 5% = 800*5/100 = 40

TC = 800 - 40 = $760

  • Offer D a “no tax” sale—the store pays the tax

Means that Walden's family will need pay just the retail price

TD = $800

The beast deal is from the store B
