Solve for x.
x/5 + 8 = 6
a. x = -10
b. x = -12
c. x = 70
d. x = -8

A. x= -10

Step-by-step explanation:

X/5 +8 =6
First, subtract 8 from both sides which will cross out the 8s on the left side and leave a -8 on the right.
X/5 = 6-8
X/5 = -2
Multiply 5 on both sides which crosses out the 5s on the left side, isolating the variable x and -2(5) in the right.

-10

$500 X 0.20 = $100

500-100=$400 Remaining

400 X 0.25 = $100

400-100=$300

he have spend $200
