Mary's backpack: 25% of 65 = 0.25 * 65 = 16.25; 65 - 16.25 = $48.75
Roberto's backpack: 30% of 75 = 0.3 * 75 = 22.5; 75 - 22.5 = $52.5

Mary's backpack was a better buy because it was cheaper.

What is x squared minus 4x minus 45
Mazyrski [523]

That's a second-degree expression in 'x'.  It represents a number,
but the number it represents completely depends on the value of 'x'. 
And if the value of 'x' ever changes, then the value of the whole
expression instantly changes.

The expression is also the product of   (x + 5)  and  (x - 9) .

Need help solving for x and y :) really need help
NISA [10]

Answer: x = 11, y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, set the sides equal to each other:

7x + 27 = 10x - 6

Add 6 to both sides:

7x + 33 = 10x

Subtract 7x from both sides:

33 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3:

11 = x

(Which is the same as x = 11)

Now, to solve for y, since they don’t give you the other side, you know that the straight line is 180° so:

7x + 27 + 9y - 5 = 180

Plug in your x:

7(11) + 27 + 9y - 5 = 180

77 + 27 + 9y - 5 = 180

Add like terms:

99 + 9y = 180

Subtract 99 from both sides:

9y = 81

Divide both sides by 9:

y = 9

Hope this helps!
