Let
X=<span>the original price of the pair of headphones
then
if the % </span>off sale is 40--------------- > (1-0.40)*X=<span>$36
x=36/0.60=60
the answer is
</span>the original price of the pair of headphones was $60
Answer:
x = -2, y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
-7x + 7y = 28
7y = 28 + 7x
y = 4 + x ----(1)
-8x+4y=24 -----(2)
sub (1) into (2)
-8x+4(4+x)=24
-8x+16+4x = 24
-8x+4x = 24-16
-4x = 8
x = -2
sub x = -2 into (1)
y=4+(-2) = 2
The shape in the middle is a quadrilateral, so the bottom right hand corner should add up to the rest of the angles to give 360 degrees.
40 + 80 + 110 = 230°
360 - 230 = 130°
The line on which x is on is a straight line, and a straight line is 180 degrees.
Therefore x has to be 180 - 130 to make sure it adds up to give 180 degrees.
180 - 130 = 50
∴ x = 50°
