Step-by-step explanation:

Given : All swimming equipment is on sale with a 35% discount. a snorkeling set regularly sells for $60.

To Find: find the discount

Solution:

Cost of snorkeling set  = $60

Discount % = 35%

So, Discount =

                       =

                       =

Hence the discount is $21

So, Option C is correct.                                        

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
