Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+9-3x=21
5x-3x=21-9
2x=12
x=6
First you have to know, that the price the agent found is 70% of $2075
(100%-30%=70%)
70%=0,7
$2075 * 0,7 = $1452,5
So 70% 0f $2075 is 1452,5
The price the agant found is $1452,5.
The two numbers are very near 7200 and 300. The sum of those is a good estimate of your sum:
... 7200 + 300 = 7500
_____
If you're taught methods of addition that include "make a ten" or "make a hundred", you know you can "borrow" a 1 from 7203 (making it 7202) and loan that 1 to 299 to make it 300. Now, you know your sum is exactly 7202+300 = 7502, with no estimation necessary.
