Answer:

Let the original price be x

70% of x = 14

70x/100 = 14

70x/14 = 100

5x = 100

x = 100/5

x = 20

Therefore the original price = $20

Hope this helps!

Answer:

20$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 14 is 70% of the original price, the full price being 100%

We set up an equation to find 100%

14 = 70%      //So we divide by 7 on both sides to get 10%

2 = 10%        //Then times by 10 to get 100%

<u><em>20 = 100%</em></u>

As a general rule we always try to find 1%, 10%, 25%, or 50% of the original price, as these numbers are quite easy to multiply to 100%

I need to know how to do Solving Systems of Equations by Elimination
vredina [299]
The point of elimination is to have one variable so example

3x + 2y = 4

7X + 3y = 5


1) Try to find a way to have one variable

7(3x + 2y = 4) ----> 21x + 14y = 28

-3(7x+ 3y = 5) -----> -21x -9y = -15


2) add

0 + 5y = 13

3) solve for the last variable

5y = 13
y = 13/5 = 2 3/5 = 2.8

4) Subsitute the variable to get the other one

3x + 2(2.8) = 4

3x + 5.6 = 4

3x = -1.6

x = 0.533333333 (continue)

The intersection would be 0.53 with a line above the 3 and 2.8. (0.5333 , 2.8)

Hope you understand!!

Rewrite 48 + 60 using the distributive property
Flauer [41]

Answer:

12* ( 4+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

48 = 12 * 4

60 = 12 * 5

48 + 60 = 12*4 + 12*5

             = 12*( 4 + 5)

            = 12* 9

            = 108

As an unenrolled tax preparer, Daryl is subject to:
-BARSIC- [3]
I think there are missing details in this question. I'll just discuss what an unenrolled tax preparer is.

Unenrolled Tax Preparers are individuals who <span>possess the minimum qualifications required to prepare federal taxes and are granted a Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN) but are not Certified Public Accountants (CPA), lawyers, or enrolled agents.

They are only limited to filing only certain types of tax returns and can only represent their client on the basic audit level before the IRS. 

In order for an unenrolled tax preparer to become an enrolled agent, he or she must do the following:
1) Pass a three-part examination before the IRS 
2) Undergo compliance check on their tax history
3) Complete 16 hours of continuing education every year to retain their status. </span>
