Answer:
The original price is $650
Step-by-step explanation:
There's an actual algebra method for this, but this is my method because I find it way easier to remember.
Since the most you can discount out of an item is 100% (well, it's considered free then) let's subtract 100 - 34, which is 66.
Now, turn it into a decimal because it makes the numbers easier- 0.66.
Since when you're finding the discount of an original price, you multiply the original price by the discount- instead for finding the original price for a discounted item we divide $429 by 0.66 instead, since when you divide a number by another number that's under 1 the quotient is a larger number.
So, 429 ÷ 0.66 = 650.
Therefore, the original price of the $429 sale price for a 34% discount is $650.

Answer: 45
Step-by-step explanation:
Harsh is part of a school cricket team, and he has scored an average of 46 runs in 5 innings. His scores in 4 of them are 46,45, 39, and 55. His fifth score is calculated as follows:
Since he made 5 innings and has an average of 46, the total scores will be:
= 46 × 5
= 230
Total of his first 4 scores will be:
= 46 + 45 + 39 + 55
= 185
5th score = 230 - 185
= 45
Answer:
x = 3.4
y = 1.4
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 3y = 11
2y = 13 – 3x, then y = (13 - 3x)/2
substitute for y:
2x + 3((13 - 3x)/2) = 11
reduce:
2x + (39 - 9x)/2 = 11
reduce:
2x + 19.5 - 4.5x = 11
subtract 19.5 from both sides of the equation and combine for x:
-2.5x = -8.5
divide both sides by -2.5:
x = 3.4
y = (13 - 3(3.4))/2 = (13 - 10.2)2 = 1.4
