What is the value of x in the equation shown below.

0.25x + 7 = 4(x - 2)​

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

0.25x+7=4(x−2)

Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by x−2.

0.25x+7=4x−8

Subtract 4x from both sides.

0.25x+7−4x=−8

Combine 0.25x and −4x to get −3.75x.

−3.75x+7=−8

Subtract 7 from both sides.

−3.75x=−8−7

Subtract 7 from −8 to get −15.

−3.75x=−15

Divide both sides by −3.75.

x=-15/-3.75

Expand -15/-3.75 by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

x=-1500/-375

Divide −1500 by −375 to get 4.

x=4

$450 is the answer.

step-by-step explanation:

30% of 450 = 135

450-135=315

$30.32

step-by-step explanation:

65.00*.12=2.80

65.00-2.80=57.20

57.20*1.06=60.632

60.632/2=30.316
