Answer:

$740.00

Step-by-step explanation:

85% of x is 629

Translate into algebra. Use a decimal in place of the percent:

.85x = 629

Divide by .85

x = 740

This answer makes sense because the regular price should be a little higher than the sale price. If they are paying 85% they're only getting 15% off.

Check:

740×.85 = 629

if you had a coupin for 12% off a meal & if you were charged 11$ what was the original price of the meal?
lana66690 [7]
$12.50

Set up a ratio.
If it was 12% off, you paid 88%.
So 88/100=11/x
Cross multiply and solve for x.
So x=1100/88=12.50

A car is 3 times as old as its tires were when it was as old as the tires Are now.
serg [7]

Answer:

Present age of the car = 1.5 years and the tires are 0.5 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of the car be x years and that of the tires be y years.

x = 3y

x = y + 1

3y = y + 1

2y = 1

y = 0.5.

x = 3*0.5 = 1.5.

Please select the most simplified form of the equation. −12x + 26 = 1x
Damm [24]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−12x+26=x


Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.


−12x+26 − x = x − x


−13x+26=0


Step 3: Subtract 26 from both sides.


−13x+26−26=0−26


−13x=−26


Step 4: Divide both sides by -13.


−13x/−13  =  −26/−13


x=2
