If the discount is 30% and the sale price is $206.50 what is the original price

Mathematics
1 answer:
maxonik [38]3 years ago
7 0

let's say the original price is "x", so that'd be the 100%.

and we know that is discounted by 30%, 100% - 30% = 70%, we know the discounted price is 206.50, so namely 206.50 is the 70% then.

if 206.50 is 70% of "x", what is "x"?


\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 206.50&70\\ x&100 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{206.50}{x}=\cfrac{70}{100}\implies \cfrac{206.50}{x}=\cfrac{7}{10} \\\\\\ 2065=7x\implies \cfrac{2065}{7}=x\implies 295=x

PLEASE I NEED HELP! How do you find y?
myrzilka [38]

In this example, y is equal to 8.

In order to find this, first note that the two x value expressions create a straight line. That means when we add them together they will equal 180. this will give us a value for x.

x + 10 + 10x - 61 = 180

11x - 51 = 180

11x = 231

x = 21

Now that we have the value of x, we can do the same for the straight line created by the x + 10 angle and the 18y + 5 angle.

x + 10 + 18y + 5 = 180

(21) + 10 + 18y + 5 = 180

36 + 18y = 180

18y = 144

y = 8

A trip to another city is 180 miles. In miles per hour to the nearest tenth, how fast does one have to drive to average 60 mph o
irakobra [83]

Answer:

63.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If one didn't take a 10 minute break he could drive 60 mph totalling 180 minutes but since he did and 180 - 10 = 170. He/she has to drive 180 miles in 170 min. so we take so we divde 180/170 and multiply by 60. If you round it to the nearest tenth you get 63.5
