For Labor Day, a furniture store is offering sale prices that "take 1/4 off" the regular price. Which of the following expressions could represent the sale price for furniture that has a regular price of c dollars? Select all that apply. (1/4)c (3/4)c c - 1/4 c + 1/4 c - (1/4)c

I believe the answer is c-1/4c and c-(1/4)c

Step-by-step explanation:

To find what 1/4 off (25% off) is, you multiply the regular price by 1/4, so that would be 1/4c OR (1/4)c.

Then you have to subtract the amount off from the regular price, so that would be c-1/4c OR c-(1/4)c

simplifying

5(x + -6) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

5(-6 + x) = 2(x + 3)

(-6 * 5 + x * 5) = 2(x + 3)

(-30 + 5x) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

-30 + 5x = 2(3 + x)

-30 + 5x = (3 * 2 + x * 2)

-30 + 5x = (6 + 2x)

solving

-30 + 5x = 6 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 5x + -2x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x

-30 + 3x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-30 + 3x = 6 + 0

-30 + 3x = 6

add '30' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 30 + 3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0

0 + 3x = 6 + 30

3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: 6 + 30 = 36

3x = 36

divide each side by '3'.

x = 12

simplifying

x = 12
