Exact Form:
The answer is A!!!!
Just did this mathematically!! Hope this helped:)
8 - 8x is already in its simplest form.
Without knowing the value of x, you cannot find what is equivalent to 8 - 8x, but you can it if is an equation, such as 8 - 8x = 88 (x would be -10).
However, you can still rewrite it as -8x + 8, which is equivalent to 8 - 8x.
Using proportions, it is found that due to the smaller division of the exchange rate by the cost, the souvenir would be less expensive in Egypt.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.
The souvenir would be less expensive in the <u>country in which the division of the exchange rate by the cost is smaller</u>.
In Britain, the cost is of 17, with an exchange rate of 0.83, hence the cost in US dollars is:
c = 17/0.83 = $20.48.
In Egypt, the cost is of 288, with an exchange rate of 18, hence the cost in US dollars is:
c = 288/18 = $16.
16 < 20.48, hence the souvenir would be less expensive in Egypt.

So if t/6=12, then multiply both sides by 6 so you get t=12*6 or t=72 (choice a)
