Answer:

9 games

Step-by-step explanation:

If he purchase 1 game, he spent $12.50. If he purchased 2 games, he spent 2(12.50) = $25.

This means he spent 12.5x for x number of games.

His total spending will be 12.5x + 20. He has $17.50 left on the card from $150.

150 - (12.5x + 20) = 17.5

150 - 12.5x -20 = 17.5

130 - 12.5x = 17.5

-12.5x =  17.5 - 130

-12.5x = -112.5

x = 9

Use similarity property:

14 / (14+6) = 21 / (21 + (x+4))

14/20 = 21/(x+25)       cross multiplication property

14*(x+25) = 20*21

14x + 350 = 420

14x = 70

x = 70/14 = 5.

abercrombie & Fitch is having a sale. The sign posted in the store says, "everything is marked down 65%." Scott buys a jacke
nikdorinn [45]

a) We have that the discount is 65 %

Scott buys a jacket for $150

First, we will calculate the discount

150\times\frac{65}{100}=97.5

then we need to subtract the quantity calculated above from the original price

150-97.5=52.5

After the markdown Scott paid $52.5

b.

In order to know the taxes first, we need to calculate the 5% of $52.5

52.5\times\frac{5}{100}=2.625

then we will sum the 5% plus the price after the markdown

52.5+2.625=55.125

The total cost of the jacket is $55.125
