If your number is x, and you want to take 40% off of x you have to multiply x by .4, then subtract that number from x
So...
x-.4x= 40% off of x

In a certain clothing store, 4 shirts and 6 ties cost $70, and 2 shirts and 4 ties cost $42. What is the cost of each tie?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

  $7

Step-by-step explanation:

Your two equations are ...

  • 4s +6t = 70
  • 2s +4t = 42

Double the second equation and subtract the first:

  2(2s +4t) -(4s +6t) = 2(42) -(70)

  2t = 14 . . . . . simplify

  t = 7 . . . . . . . divide by 2

The cost of each tie is $7.

A parking garage charges a $2.50 daily fee plus an hourly rate of $4.00. If you have $12.50 to pay for parking, how long can you
Vesnalui [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to set up an equation so

12.50=4x+2.50

Simplify each side by subtracting the initial fee of 2.50

10=4x

divide by 4 to isolate x

2.5=x

You can park for 2.5 hours with your budget
