I hope I am reading the problem right: The price of a mountain bike increased by 20% in the past year. The value is $150. What was the value of the mountain bike last year?
Let's simplify this. One year, there was this radical mountain bike that used to have an unsaid price, <em>x. </em>That year, that price of x increased by 20% more than it was before, or <em>120% times the original value</em>. Because of that, it's now $150.
We can equation this.
1.20x = 150
x = 150/1.2
x = 125
The bike, I believe, cost $125 last year. Hope this helps!
This is how it is done. Let me know if you have questions...
Answer:
3x+2y+2=0
3x=-2y-2
x=-(2y+2)/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Same as any other midpoint of line segment or two points, it is the average of the two points x and y coordinates...
mp=((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)
mp=((-6+16)/2, (-9+5)/2)
mp=(10/2, -4/2)
mp=(5, -2)
Your answer: -0.8
first you would add all of your temperatures together which would give you -5.6
then you would divide -5.6 by 7 because u have 7 numbers
which would give you your answer!
hope this helps, good luck!
