a) The expression to find the sale price of pastry =  0.75 x

b)  The regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Let x be the regular price of the pastry in the bakery

Percentage of discount = 25%

Amount of discount  = 0.25 x

The expression to find the sale price of pastry = x - 0.25 x = 0.75 x

Step 2 :

Sale price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.03 = 0.75 x

<u>To find the regular price</u>

0.75x = 2.03

x = \frac{2.03}{0.75} = 2.70

Regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70

Step 3 :

Answer :

a) The expression to find the sale price of pastry =  0.75 x

b) The regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70

Ben is 12 years older than Ishaan. Ben and Ishaan first met two years ago. Three years ago, Ben was 4 times as old as Ishaan.

So, the 2 equations would be.... B -12 = I   and    (B - 3) = 4(I - 3)  the second sentence is irrelevant.
B - 3 = 4 (I) - 12
B - 3 = 4B - 48 - 12
B - 4B = -60 + 3
-3B = -57
B (Ben) = 19
Ishaan is 7

Hope this helps!
