Answer:

\$22.50*0.20=\$4.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-------> original price

y------> percentage of discount

z-----> discount

we know that

z=xy

In this problem we have

x=\$22.50

y=20\%=\frac{20}{100}=0.20

Substitute the values

z=\$22.50*0.20=\$4.50

discount = price times % off

 discount = 22.50 x 0.20

discount = $4.50

When figuring out the amount of mulch would be needed for Alex's back yard, he created an equation that
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Alex will need 14 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

B= 4(2x+7)+3(2x+7)

and

2x+7=2

First, we should solve the second equation to obtain x:

2x+7=2

2x=2-7

x= -5/2

Then, we use this answer to calculate B:

B=4(2(-5/2)+7)+3(2)

B=4(-5+7)+6

B=4(2)+6

B=8+6

B=14

Alex will need 14 bags

Nicole sold 1 cherry pie and 9 pumpkin pies for $60. Lisa sold 11 cheery pies and 4 pumpkin pies for $90. what's the cost each o
zubka84 [21]
X= cost per cherry pie
y= cost per pumpkin pie

NICOLE
1x + 9y= $60

LISA
11x + 4y= $90


STEP 1
multiply Nicole's equation by -11

-11(1x + 9y)= -11($60)
multiply -11 by all terms

(-11 * x) + (-11 * 9y)= (-11 * 60)

-11x - 99y= -660


STEP 2
add Nicole's new equation from step 1 to Lisa's equation to solve for y (using the elimination method)

-11x - 99y= -660
11x + 4y= 90
the x terms "cancel out"

-95y= -570
divide both sides by -95

y= $6 per pumpkin pie


STEP 3
substitute y value into either original equation to solve for x

x + 9y= $60

x + 9(6)= 60

x + 54= 60
subtract 54 from both sides

x= $6 per cherry pie


CHECK
11x + 4y= $90
11(6) + 4(6)= 90
66 + 24= 90
90= 90


ANSWER: Each cherry pie costs $6 and each pumpkin pie costs $6.

Hope this helps! :)
