$ 5 is taken is off the regular price
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that, Regular price of the soccer ball is $ 25
During the sale, it is 20 percent off
Let "x" be the amount that is taken off the regular price
Regular price = $ 25
Discount = 20 percent off
Which means, 20 % of regular price is taken off
x = 20 % of regular price
x = 20 % of 25
Thus $ 5 is taken is off the regular price
The variable for Maggie will be M and 2x-3 be her younger brothers age (<u>Twice her age). </u>We then would turn this into <u>an algebraic problem</u>. (m+2x -3=24).
3x-3=24, we would add 3 to both sides (-3 and 24). 24 + 3 equals 27, we now have to divide -3x and 27 on both sides, which equals <u>9. (x=9)</u>

This is how I'd solve it:
bench = x x+3x=600
table = 3x 4x=600
x=150
The bench costs <u>$150</u> and the table costs <u>$450</u>; combined, they cost $600, so it's correct. I hope this helps you!
