marta [7]2 years ago

Answer:

a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x = 7 is a solution, substitute x = 7 into the equation and solve for a

4(7) - 2(7 + a) = 8 , that is

28 - 2(7 + a) = 8 ( subtract 28 from both sides )

- 2(7 + a) = - 20 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

7 + a = 10 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

a = 3

For Judy's birthday, her friend gave her a gift card. She went to the clothing store and bought a total of $178.25 worth of clot
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

<h3>The percentage is <u>60%</u> of the total amount paid with the gift card. </h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total worth of clothing is $178.25 and the amount paid with cash is $71.30.

Let us find the part of amount  paid with the gift card:

Amount of gift card(G) = Total worth(T) - Amount paid in cash(C).

G\ =\ 178.25-71.30

G\ =\ 106.95.

So, the amount paid with the gift card is $106.95.

Now, according to question:

\frac{106.95}{178.25}\times100

=0.6\times100

=60%.

Therefore, the percentage is <u>60%</u> of the total amount paid with the gift card.
