Answer:

s = 3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b = price of a burger

Let s = price of a side item

2b+s = 14.75

3b+2s = 24

Multiply the first equation by -2

-4b-2s =-29.50

Add to the second equation to eliminate s

-4b-2s =-29.50

3b+2s = 24

---------------------

-b = -5.50

Multiply by -1

b = 5.50

Now find s

2b+s = 14.75

2*5.50 +s =14.75

11 + s = 14.75

Subtract 11 from each side

s = 14.75 -11

s = 3.75

Jon is looking into a 4250 vacation package that is offered for 25% off. there's a 9% resort fee added on to the total. How much
bazaltina [42]
When you want to find a percent of a number you do this:
given number/ 1   multiplied by   percentage/100

so in this question its a multiple step 

start with finding 25 percent of 4250 which is= 1062.5
so thats how much the discount is so the amount after the 25% discount is:
4250-1062.5= 3187.5

then you have to add 9% due to fees
so you find 9% of 3187.5 which is= 286.875
so you add 286.875 to 3187.5 gives you= 3437.375 in total cost for the vacation package
