1 + 0.09 = 1.09
90 * 1.09 = 98.1
The original price of the in-line skates was $98.1
Answer:
x=c+b/a
Step-by-step explanation:
ax-b=c
+b +b
ax=c+b
__ ___
a=c+b/a
Multiply first example by 3 and subtract by second example, you will get the following:
3*(5x + 2y) = 3*22 => 3*5x + 3*2y = 66 => 15x + 6y = 66
now subtraction:
(15x + 6y) - (-2x + 6y) = 66 - 3
15x + 6y + 2x - 6y = 63
15x + 2x + 6y - 6y = 63
17x = 63
x = 63/17 ≈ 3.705..... and as it says to round to the nearest tenth our answer would be: x = 3.7
Marked(10)/total = 3/20 (from sample)
total/10 = 20/3 (inverting the above proportion)
total = 10•20/3 = 200/3 ≈ 67
