Answer: the school paid $80 for the book.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount that the school paid for the book.
Her school charges a lost book fee equal to 75% of the cost of the book. It means that the amount that the school would charge on a book that cost $x is
75/100 × x = 0.75 × x = 0.75x
Sarah received a notice stating that she owed the school $60 for he lost book. It means that
0.75x = 60
x = 60/0.75
x = $80
The answer is (A) 2, hope this helps!
5y-10=-25
5y=-25+10 addition property of equa
5y=-15 simplifying
Y=-15/5 dividing property
Y=-3
Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
y = (1/3)x - 4
3y - x = -7
put the first equation into the second
3(1/3)x - (3)4 - x = -7
x - 12 - x = -7
-12 = -7 can never be true so this is no solution
