Answer:

x + (5x-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

x stands for the number of coins Nancy has

Kevin has 9 less than 5 times what Nancy has, so his part of the expression is 5x-9

To find the total number of coins they have, you have to add Nancy's number of coins x plus Kevin's number of coins 5x-9

x + (5x-9)

But you have to put parentheses around Kevin's 5x-9 so that part of the expression is calculated first, as per order of operations

After a 90% reduction, you purchase a new clothes dryer on sale for $62. What was the original price of the clothes dryer?
vekshin1

Answer:

$7.20

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we would have to find out how much to subtract from $62.

We need to multiply 90% and 62 or 0.9 x 62

When we finish this equation we get 54.8, which is what we need to subtract from 62 to see what 90% off is.

62 - 54.8 = 7.2, so therefore our answer is $7.20
