4x = (130 - 2x) so x = 65/3
(3y + 40) + (130 -2x) = 180 because the angles are supplementary
plug in x
3y + 40 + 130 - 2(65/3) = 180
so 3y = 95/3
therefore y = 95/6
for
x
y
: To do this we must divide each side of the equation by
2
y
which will give us
x
y
while keeping the equation balance.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: price of the watch before the discount is £23.5825
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the original price of the watch.
Jason went shopping he bought a watch and a pair of trainers for a total price of £53.55. This price includes 15% loyalty discount. The value of the discount is
15/100 × 53.55 = 8.0325
This means that the original cost of both items is
53.55 + 8.0325 = 61.5825
Before the discounts, the trainers were priced at £38. Therefore,
38 + x = 61.5825
x = 61.5825 - 38
x = 23.5825
