Answer:

y = 17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx

→ Substitute in the values

5 = 2k

→ Divide both sides by 2 to isolate k

k = 2.5

⇒ y = 2.5x

→ Substitute in x = 7

y = 2.5x ⇔ y = 2.5 × 7 ⇔ y = 17.5

Ksenya-84 [330]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{360 - 2(x + 30)}{2} = x \\ 360 - 2x - 60 = 2x \\ 300 - 4x = 0 \\ 4x = 300 \\ x = 300 \div 4 = 75$

A board game that normally costs $30 is on sale for 25 percent off. What is the sale price of the game?

Paha777 [63]

We can use two different ways to solve this equation:

Because the board is 25 off, we can multiply the price and subtract the result:

30 - 0.25(30) = 30 - 7.5 = $22.50

We can also solve by multiplying the total price by 0.75

(1 - 0.25)(30) = 0.75(30) = $22.50

The sales price is $22.50
