The <u><em>correct answer</em></u> is:
The equation is 7(c-0.75) = 2.80, and the regular price of a cookie is c = $1.15.
Explanation:
c is the regular price of a cookie. We know that today they are $0.75 less than the normal price; this is given by the expression c-0.75.
We also know if we buy 7 of them, the total is $2.80. This means we multiply our expression, c-0.75, by 7 and set it equal to $2.80:
7(c-0.75) = 2.80
To solve, first use the distributive property:
7*c-7*0.75 = 2.80
7c-5.25 = 2.80
Add 5.25 to each side:
7c-5.25+5.25 = 2.80+5.25
7c = 8.05
Divide each side by 7:
7c/7 = 8.05/7
c = $1.15.
It's obviously the second one

Answer:
$200,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Down payment = $24,000
Given that $24,000 is 12% of the price.
12% = $24000
1% = 24000 ÷ 12 = $2000
Price of the house
= 2000 x 100%
= $200,000
75
Reduction of 12
3 x 4 = 12
Increase of 10
5 x 2 = 10
75 - 12 = 63
63 + 10 = 73
Change = 2 inches (75 - 73)
