3n+8=23 answer and the work to show the answer please

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: n = 5

Step-by-step explanation: To solve for n, we must first isolate the term containing n which in this problem is 3n.

Since 8 is being added to 3n, we subtract 8 from both sides of the equation to isolate the 3n. On the left, the +8 and -8 cancel out and on the right 23 - 8 is 15.

So we have 3n = 15.

Now we can finish things off by just dividing both sides of the equation by 3. On the left the 3's cancel and on the right 15 divided by 3 is 5 so n = 5 and you can check your answer by plugging 5 back in for n in the original equation which is shown below in bold.

3(5) + 8 = 23 or 15 + 8 = 23.

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

n = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

3n + 8 = 23

     - 8    - 8   Subtract 8 from both sides

3n = 15

n = 5      Divide both sides by 3

Brad works at a grocery store after school. Because he’s a part-time employee, his family receives a 5% discount on all items purchased at the store. Brad’s father recently bought a total of $84.96 worth of groceries. After deducting the amount of the discount, how much did Brad’s father actually pay for these items?

Answers

Answer: Brad's father actually pay $80.712 for these items.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Worth of groceries = $84.96

Rate of discount = 5%

Amount of discount would be

0.05* 84.96\n\n=\$4.248

Amount after deducting discount would be

84.96-4.248\n\n=\$80.712

Hence, Brad's father actually pay $80.712 for these items.

5% in decimal form is .05
Now you need to multiply $84.96 by .05
$84.96 * .05= $4.248 or $4.25
Now that you know how much was discounted all you need to do is subtract the discount from the original price of $84.96 
$84.96-$4.25= $80.71 <---- Answer

David invested $1000.ppm what would that money grow to the 18 months at 5.5% interest rate?

Answers

David invested $1000. Let's solve for the amount of money to grow to the 18 months at 5.5% interest rate?
Let's assume that this 5.5% interest is per month.
=> 1 000 dollars * 0.055 = 55 dollars per month
=> 55  * 18 months = 990 dollars in 18 months.

Two problems here- 1) Find the total cost to the nearest cent, $100 dinner; 20% gratuity 2) Find the total cost to the nearest cent, 12300 car; 5% sales tax

Answers

In both of these problems you are asked to find a percentage of another number and then add it to that number... In math

"is" means =
"of" means ×

1) In the first problem 20% of 100 is, means
20% × 100 =
.20 × 100 = $20

now add it to the cost of the meal.

100 + 20 = $120 (final cost)

___________________

2) In the second problem 5% of 12300 is, means
5% × 12300 =
.05 × 12300 = $615

add this to the original price for the final cost...

12300 + 615 = $12,915
