Answer:

Maggie's age is 13 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ------> Maggie's brother age

y ------> Maggie's age

we know that

x+y=43 ------ > equation A

x=3y-9 ------> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

(3y-9)+y=43

4y=43+9

4y=52

y=13

therefore

Maggie's age is 13 years

Answer:

Original Price = $23

Step-by-step explanation:

$5.75 is the price after a discount of 75%

Let the original price be x and x is 100% of the price

5.75 = 100%x - 75%x

5.75 = 25%x

The new price is 25% of the original because you are subtracting 75%

25% is also written as 0.25

5.75 = 0.25x

x = 5.75/0.25

x = 23

The original price is 23
