Answer:
sandwich = 6.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s = sandwich price
d = drink price
6s + 4d = 53
4s + 6d = 47
Multiply the first equation by 3
18s + 12d = 159
Multiply the second equation by -2
-4s - 12d = -94
Add these equations together
18s + 12d = 159
-8s - 12d = -94
--------------------------
10s = 65
Divide by 10
s = 65/10
s =6.5
I hope I am reading the problem right: The price of a mountain bike increased by 20% in the past year. The value is $150. What was the value of the mountain bike last year?
Let's simplify this. One year, there was this radical mountain bike that used to have an unsaid price, <em>x. </em>That year, that price of x increased by 20% more than it was before, or <em>120% times the original value</em>. Because of that, it's now $150.
We can equation this.
1.20x = 150
x = 150/1.2
x = 125
The bike, I believe, cost $125 last year. Hope this helps!
