Hi!
We will solve this using rations, like this:
$920 equals to 115% = 1,15
$x equals to 100% = 1
_______________________
x = (920*1)/1,15
x = 920/1,15
x = 800
Store earned 15%, or in this case 920 - 800 = $120.
Hope this helps!
Let:
x= quarters
y= dimes
x+y=67
and
.25x+.10y=12.40
x=67-y
.25(67-y)+.10y=12.40
16.75-.25y+10y=12.40
16.75-.15y=12.40
Lets rearrange this:
-.15y+16.75=12.40
-16.75 -16.75
-.15y=-4.35
the negatives cancel out
.<u>15y</u>=<u>4.35
</u>.15<em /><em> <u /></em>.15
y=29
Back to the original x=67-y
x=67-29
x=38
So,
x=38
y=29

Answer:
49 total customers
Step-by-step explanation:
first find 40% of 35 by multiplying 0.40 by 35
0.40 × 35 = 14
now add 14 to 35 to find the new total # of customers
14 + 35 = 49
3(x-1)-8=4(1+x)+5
One solution was found :
x = -20
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
3*(x-1)-8-(4*(1+x)+5)=0
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
((3•(x-1))-8)-(4•(x+1)+5) = 0
Step 2 :
Equation at the end of step 2 :
(3 • (x - 1) - 8) - (4x + 9) = 0
Step 3 :
Step 4 :
Pulling out like terms :
4.1 Pull out like factors :
-x - 20 = -1 • (x + 20)
Equation at the end of step 4 :
-x - 20 = 0
Step 5 :
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
5.1 Solve : -x-20 = 0
Add 20 to both sides of the equation :
-x = 20
Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) : x = -20
One solution was found :
x = -20
