1-2m-5m=15
combine like terms
1 -7m = 15
subtract 1 from each side
1-1-7m = 15-1
simplify
-7m = 14
divide by -7
-7m/-7 = 14/-7
simplify
m = -2
First, lets determine the regular price of his purchase :
16.99 (3) + 34.99 (3) + 52.99 (2) + 5.99 (5) = 50.97 + 104.97 + 105.98 + 29.95 = 291.87
Therefore, the regular price of his purchase is $291.87 before sales tax.
If he receives 25% off of his total purchase, then the price is now :
291.87 * .75 = $218.90
We multiply by 75% because we are only paying 75% of the total purchase price since we received a 25% discount.
The total savings is
291.87 - 218.90 = $72.97
If sales tax is 10%, the total purchase price after sales tax is :
218.90 * 1.10 = $240.79
The sales tax is $21.89 since
240.79 -218.90 = 21.89
If he pays with 3 $100 bills, we should receive :
300 - 240.79 = $59.21
in change.
To find the amount that Franklin financed, you will calculate the amount he put down and subtract that from the original price because that is what he still owes.
0.2 x $4500 = $900
$4500 - $900 = $3600.
Porter financed $3600.
You also multiply 0.8 x $4500 because this represents the part out of 100% he still owes. You will get the same answer this way.
Answer: t= Distance/Speed = 4/28= 1/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed is 28miles /hr
Distance = 4miles
Distance = Speed × time
Time(t) = Distance /Speed
