If the price of the item drops by 60% then that means the new price is 40% of the original
new price = p*0.4
ex:
new price = $100*0.4= $40
new price= $75*0.4 = $30

Answer:
it is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract 5 from both sides. -1.6r=-5 divide both sides by-1.6. r=-5/-1.6 simp;ify-5/1.6 to 3.125. r =3.125
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution by substitution method
y=7x+8
∴y-7x=8
and y=x+20
∴y-x=20
Suppose,
-7x+y=8→(1)
and -x+y=20→(2)
Taking equation (1), we have
-7x+y=8
⇒y=7x+8→(3)
Putting y=7x+8 in equation (2), we get
-x + 7x + 8 = 20
6x = 20-8
6x = 12
x= 12 / 6
x = 2
substitute for x in equation (3)
y = 7(x) + 8
y = 7(2) + 8
y = 22
