Okay, to solve this, let's use the variable 'p' to represent the original price:
Because we know the amount of discount and the percentage off, we know that 60% of the original price is $75.
Knowing this, we can write an equation:
0.6p = 75
There are multiple ways to solve this, but I'll just use the method I prefer
6p = 750
p = 750/6
p = 125
The original price of the chess set was $125

Given the following formula, solve for t.<br> v = u + at
levacccp [35]

Answer:

t=(v-u)/a

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation we start with is v=u+at and we need to isolate t.

First subtract u from both sides

v-u=at

Now just divide both sides by a

(v-u)/a=t or t=(v-u)/a

Will the Brainliest answer!!!<br><br> solve for x and y.<br><br> 946x+642y=911
Ronch [10]

While you cannot solve 946x+642y=911 for numerical values of x and y, you can indeed solve 946x+642y=911 first for x and then for y:

-911 - 642y

For x: 946x+642y=911 becomes 946x = 911 - 642y, or x = ------------------

946

911-946x

For y: 946x+642y=911 becomes 642y = 911-946x, or y = ---------------

642
