Answer:
$50
Step-by-step explanation:
If the original price was $10 more than the sale price, so we know that in this case, 20% = $10. Because 20% is equivlalent to 
, multiply $10 by 5 to get the answer of $50.
Answer:
8/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2x-5= -20
move -5 to the other side
sign changes from -5 to 5
2x-5+5= -20+5
2x= -15
divide by 2 for both sides
2x/2= -15/2
cross out 2 and 2, divide by 2 and 2 and then becomes x
x= -15/2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
She has 290 cents.
Nickels: 6x+1
Quarters: x
Dimes: 4x
Now that we've converted it algebraically, we can add them
6x+1 + x + 4x = 11x+1 = 290
11x = 289
x = 289/11

Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by writing out w in terms of x. After one year, there is 1.08*x dollars in the account. x dollars are then deposited, giving us a total of 1.08*x + x (normally we would simplify this to 2.08 but looking at the answers this is not a good idea.) Next, multiply by 1.08 to account for the 2nd year's interest. This brings to total to w = 1.08(1.08*x + x) = (1.08^2)*x + 1.08*x. Factoring out x, we are left with w = (1.08^2 + 1.08) * x. Dividing both sides by (1.08^2 + 1.08), we are left with x = w/(1.08^2 + 1.08) so the answer is d.
