Answer:

x = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's unpack the equation x*2=5 from our definition of *:

x*2=3x+2(2)-1=5 (where x\in \mathbb{Z})

Now that we've got things defined in terms of familiar operations, we can simplify and solve for x:

3x+2(2)-1=5\\3x+4-1=5\\3x+3=5\\3x=2\\x=2/3

Total before tax: $118

Total after tax: $102.66

Step-by-step explanation:

For A, we add the cost of the shirt and jeans to get the total before tax.

$39.20 + $79.80 = $118.00

For the total, after 13% we see how much 1% is.

1% of $118 is $1.18

$1.18 * 13 = $15.34.

$118 - $15.34 = $102.66

Hope this helped! Have a nice day :)
