180 divided by 3, then multiplied by 4 ($240)

So
100%=original
25% discount
100-25=75
it is 180 sale
75%=180
find 100%

a hack is to recognize that 75/3 times 4=100 so
75%=180
divide 3
25%=60
times 4
100%=240


the real way is proportions
75:180 =100:x
75/180=100/x
multiply both sides by 180x
75x=18000
divide 75
x=240



origitnal price=$240

Ksju [112]

Answer:

C = 125S + $3750

Step-by-step explanation:

$ 3750  = truck rental;   $125 per ton of sugar transported.  C is the cost;  S is the number of tons transported. The equation relating C to S would be a linear equation like y = mx + b. This equation would be graphed in the first quadrant only. You would start with your y-intercept at (0, 3750). As x increases by 1, your y increases by 125 yielding these points:

(1, 3875)  (2, 4000)  (3, 4125)  etc.

This shows that for each increase by one ton of sugar, the cost goes up $125

Find the graph of y=3/4-2
alisha [4.7K]

The graph of

... y = 3/4 - 2

is a horizontal line at y = -1.25.

The graph of

... y = (3/4)x - 2

is an upward-sloping line with a rise of 3 for every 4 units to the right. It intercepts the y-axis at y = -2.
