<em>100 - 70% = 30 </em>

<em>0.30 × p (p=45)</em>

<em>0.30 × 45 = </em><em>13.5</em><em> </em>

<em>the sale price is </em><em>$13.50</em>

I believe it is $64.28
First you divide 45/7 to find out what 10% of 45 is since 70% is $45
45/7= 6.42, so now you multiply 6.42 by 3 to fin out what the 30% is
6.42(3)= $19.28
Now you add $19.28+45 to add the 30% and the 70%, which is $64.28

Today the ratio of Elinor's age to her mother's age is 3:8. After 15 years, the ratio will become 6:11. What is Elinor's age tod
amm1812
X=Elinor´s age today.
y=Mother´s age today.
(x+15)=Elinor´s age after 15 years.
(y+15)=Mohter´s age after 15 years.

We can suggest this systemen of equations:
x/y=3/8                                  ⇒x=3y/8
(x+15)/(y+15)=6/11              ⇒11(x+15)=6(y+15)

Finally, we´ll have the following system:
x=3y/8
11(x+15)=6(y+15)

We can solve this system of equations by substitution method:
11[(3y/8)+15)=6(y+15)
11[(3y+120)/8)=6y+90
33y+1320=8(6y+90)
33y+1320=48y+720
33y-48y=720-1320
-15y=-600
y=-600/-15
y=40

We find out the value of "x";
x=3y/8
x=3(40)/8
x=120/8
x=15

Answer: Elinor is 15 years old.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>d ) 13x−8y=28 11x−8y=24 </h2>

we can solve:

13x−8y=28

11x−8y=24

.............................(subtract side by side)

13x - 11 x + (-8y) - (-8y) = 28 - 24

2x + 0 = 4

x = 4/2 = 2 (divide both sides by 2),

then you replace x = 2 into 13x - 8y = 28, we have 26 - 8y = 28

or -8y = 28-26, or -8y = 2, then y = 2/ -8= -1/4

Solution x =2, y = - 1/4

b) 5x−2y=1 15x−3y=−3

5x−2y=1 (multiple bothe sides by 3)

15x−3y=−3

we have

15x−6y=3

15x−3y=−3

..................(  subtract side by side)

0 -3y = 6

y = 6/-3

y = -2

then you replace y =- 2 into 5x - 2y = 1, we have 5x + 4 = 1

or 5x = 1-4 or 5x = -3, then x = -3/5

Solution: x = -3/5, y = -2

c) 13x−12y=14 11x−4=18y

we have:

13x−12y=14

11x−4=18y

then:

13x−12y=14 ( multiple bothe sides by 6)

11x - 18y = 4   (multiple bothe sides by 4)

then

78x−72y=84

44x−72y= 16

...........................( subtract side by side)

34x = 68

or x = 68/34 = 2

then you replace x = 2 into 11x -4 = 18y , we have 22 -4 = 18y

or 18y = 18 or y = 18/18 = 1

Solution: x = 2 , y = 1

a) 12x−7y=2 4x−5y=6

we have

12x−7y=2

4x−5y=6  (multiple bothe sides by 3)

so

12x−7y=2

12x−15y=18

-------------------------(subtract side by side)

8y = -16

or y = -16/8 = -2

then you replace y = -2 into 4x -5y = 6 , we have 4x + 10 = 6

or 4x = 6 - 10 or 4x = - 4 and x = -4/4 = - 1

Solution: x = - 1 , y = - 2

b) 7u+2v=1 17u+6v=−9

7u+2v=1   (multiple bothe sides by 3)

17u+6v=−9

so

21u+6v=3  

17u+6v=−9

------------------(subtract side by side)

4u = 12

or u = 12/4 = 3

then you replace u = 3 into 7u +2v = 1 , we have 21 + 2v = 1

or 2v = 1 - 21 or 2v = - 20 and v = -20/2 = - 10

Solution: u = 3, v = - 10

<h2>c) 6x=25y+1 5x−16y=−4</h2>

6x=25y+1  (multiple bothe sides by 5)

5x−16y=−4  (multiple bothe sides by 6)

we have

30x=125y+5

30x = 96y−24

-------------------------(subtract side by side)

0 = 29y + 29

or 29y = - 29

then y = - 29/29 = -1

then you replace y = -1 into 6x = 25y + 1 , we have 6x = - 25 + 1

or 6x = - 24 or x = -24/6 = - 4

Solution: x= -4, y = - 1

Have a good day!

Write the equivalent fraction, the reduced fraction, and the decimal equivalent for 45%. Jenny solved this problem and her work
Illusion [34]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equivalent fraction of 45% is solved as follows:

First, we'll change the percentage to fraction which will be:

45% = 45/100

Then, we'll reduce to lowest term which will be:

45/100 = 9/20

Now, we'll convert the fraction to decimal which will be:

9/20 = 0.45

The mistake that Jenny made was that she divided 90 by 20. This will give 4.5.
