Let x = speed and y = distance
y = x * 45
y = (x - 4) * 70
45x = 70x - 280
-25x = -280
x = 11.2
Put it back into the first equation:
y = 11.2 x 45
y = 504miles
Hope this helps! Any questions let me know :)
The discount is 60% of regular price, or we can write it as
discount = 60% × regular price
input the numbers
discount = 60% × regular price
discount = 60% × 45
discount = 60/100 × 45
discount = 2,700/100
discount = 27
The answer is $27
The two numbers are 14 and 11
