Answer:

$30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of sweatshirt be $x.

Discount percentage = 30%

Discount in dollars = 30% of $x

Discount in dollars = 30/100 of $x = $ 30x/100

Given that discount in $ is 9

thus

30x/100 = 9

x = 9*100/30 = 30

Thus, the original price is $30

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

1998= 30,000 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

In 1999, the student enrolment at a college was 13% more than it was in 1998. If the enrolment was 36,612 in 2000, which was 8% more than 1999, find the enrolment in 1998

<u>First, we need to determine the enrolment in 1999:</u>

1999= 36,612/1.08

1999= 33,900

<u>Now, we can find the enrolment in 1998:</u>

1998= 33,900/1.13

1998= 30,000

Please help ;-; <br> Solve for the simultaneous equation….<br> 5x+y=17<br> X+y=3
Svetach [21]

<u>Given Equation</u>:-

  • 5x+y=17 . . . . . . . . 1
  • x+y=3 . . . . . . . . . . 2

<u>To find</u> :

  • value of x
  • value of y

<u>Solution</u> :

<u>Let's start with equation 2</u>:-

x + y = 3

y = 3 - x

Put the value of y in Equation 1

  • 5x+y=17
  • 5x + (3 - x) = 17
  • 5x - x + 3 = 17
  • 4x + 3 = 17
  • 4x = 17 - 3
  • 4x = 14
  • x = 14/4
  • x = 7/2
  • x = <em>3.5</em>

<u>Now Let's find value of y</u><u>:</u>

put the value of x in equation 2:

y = 3 - x

y = 3 - 3.5

y = <em>0.5</em>
