To find the original amount, you divide the product by the percentage.
112.79 / 0.15 ≈ 751.933 (the 3's repeat infinitely).
To check your answer, multiply 751.933 by 0.15.
751.933 * 0.15 = 112.78995 ≈ 112.79
Answer:
10/30
Step-by-step explanation:
First, multiply the denominator by 10 to make 30.
Then, since we multiplied the denominator, we multiply the numerator. 1 x 10= 10
Therefore the answer is 10/30.
Y = x + 5....so we sub in x + 5 for y in the other equation
4x + y = 20
4x + x + 5 = 20
5x + 5 = 20
5x = 20 - 5
5x = 15
x = 15/5
x = 3
y = x + 5
y = 3 + 5
y = 8
solution is (3,8)
