So when you're solving for x here and distribute 8 on the right side, it would look like this:
Now in order to solve for x, we know we have to get all the x's on one side of the equal sign. Let's get all our x's to the left side. Since the right side has a positive 8x, you need to subtract 8x on the right. But whatever you do to one side you must do to the other. So since we are subtracting 8x on the right, we need to do that on the left.
But we can't! Since both sides will cancel out to zero before x can be solved.
Therefore the answer is 0.
Hope that helps!
<span>It's 1/5(m-100). What you do is 1/5 and connect it with what is in the parenthesis and your answer will be -20 just like when you do 1/5m-20</span>
Product means the result you get after multiplying. So you have to multiply the two numbers. 379*8 = 3032
Answer:
$50,112. Increase is $2,112
Step-by-step explanation:
1st way. $48,000 x 1.044 = $50,112. 1.044 is the same thing as saying 104.4% of the total price in decimal form, which is what the new price would be when adding 4.4% to the 100% of the original price. To get the amount of increase just find the difference in the two. $50,112-$48,000 = $2,112
2nd way. $48,000 x .044. = $2,112 .044 is 4.4% in decimal form. So you found the increase here. Add the increase to the original price. $48,000 + $2,112 to get the new price of $50,112.
