1/3= 5/15
2/5= 6/15
5/15 + 6/15 = 11/15
15/15 - 11/15 = 4/15
Part C= 4/15
The first discounted price is given through the equation,
discounted price = ($3.45)(1 - 0.20) = $2.76
Then, due to the privilege of being a Coles-Myer discount card holder, another 7.5% discount is given. Such that the final price would be,
final price = ($2.76)(1 - 0.075) = $2.553
The total amount saved up is equal to,
$3.45 - $2.553 = $0.897
Answer: 20 pieces, 72 inches of ribbon
Step-by-step explanation: 6/1.5=4 4x5=20 6x12= 72 inches
The solutions of the equations are x = 1 and y = 2
The system of equations are
4x + 3y = 10
-4x + 5y = 6
Here we have to use the elimination method. Eliminate the x term and find the value of y term
Add both equation
3y + 5y = 10 +6
Add the like terms
8y = 16
y = 16 / 8
Divide the terms
y = 2
Substitute the value of x in the first equation
4x + 3y = 10
4x + 3×2 = 10
Multiply the terms
4x + 6 = 10
4x = 10 - 6
4x = 4
x = 4 / 4
Divide the terms
x = 1
Hence, the solutions of the equations are x = 1 and y = 2
