Answer:
Patricia is 47 years old
Sharla is 55 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the first sentence as an equation: (S= Sharla) (P= Patricia)
S=P+8
Rewrite the second sentence as an equation:
S+P=102
1) Substitute P+8 as Sharla in the second equation:
P+8+P=102
2) Combine alike terms:
2P+8=102
3) Subtract 8 from both sides:
2P=94
4) Divide both sides by 2:
P=47
5) Substitute 47 as P in the <u>First</u> equation:
S=47+8
6) Solve:
S=55
Remember that percent means parts out of 100
x/100
discount is the decrease
so we divide the decrease by the original total and get
100/5775=0.0173
convert to fraction
0.0173/1
make bottom number 100
multiply by 100/100
1.73/100=1.73%
round
2%
