let x = orginal price of the shorts

$21 = x(100%-20%) * 1.05

$21 = x(80%) * 1.05

$21 = 0.8x * 1.05

Subtract 1.05 from both sides

$19.95 = 0.8x

Divide 0.8 from both sides

$24.9375 = x

So the orginal price of the shorts are about $24.94

interest = 429-350 = 79

Percentage of interest out of actual price paid

If f(x) = (3+x)/ (x-3),what is f(a+ 2)?

balandron [24]

To answer items such as this, we directly substitute the a + 2 to the all the x's in the function such that,
f(a + 2) = (3 + a + 2) / (a + 2 - 3)
Simplifying the function generated above,
f(a + 2) = (5 + a) / (a - 1)

Dylan delivers parcels.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Dylan delivered 140 parcels on Wednesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

On Wednesday:

On Wednesday, he delivered x parcels.

Thursday:

10% more than Wednesday, so 100 + 10 = 110% of x = 1.1x

Friday:

50% pless than on Thursday, so 100 - 50 = 50% of 1.1x = 0.5*1.1*x.

THis is equals to 77. So

$0.5*1.1x = 77$

$x = \frac{77}{0.5*1.1}$

$x = 140$

Dylan delivered 140 parcels on Wednesday.
