We are given the initial price of a car and we are also told that the car sold for a 15% profit which means that the price that the car was sold for is 15% more than it's initial price. This is just a simple multiplication problem which we multiply the initial price by the total percentage plus 0.15

$Sold\ Price = Initial\ Price *(Total\ Percentage+Profit\ Percentage)$

$Sold\ Price = \$5200*(1+0.15)$

$Sold\ Price = \$5200*(1.15)$

$Sold\ Price = \$5980$

Therefore, our final answer is that the selling price was $5980

Hope this helps!

How do you factor 8x+56?

Aleksandr [31]

If you mean how do you get x by it's you divide both sides by 8, to cancel out the multiplication between x and 8, meaning that it would end up being x=7, sorry if that didn't answer your question correctly.
