Step-by-step explanation:
1/5x+60=2/3x-2
subtract 1/5x from 2/3x
when you do that you should get 0.46x repeating
then you add two to 60
you should get 62
62=0.46x
divide x
you get 134.7
Double the first equation: 4x+14y=-2 and subtract the second: 17y=17, so y=1. 2x=-7y-1=-7-1=-8, so x=-8/2=-4.
The answer is x=-4 and y=1.
Answer:
16.
Step-by-step explanation:
What does 75% Off mean? It means 75% of the price is subtracted. So find 75% of 64.
Here is our equation: 75/100 x 64 = 48.
So 48 dollars is going to be subtracted from 64, which gives us 64-48=16.
So the price of the wedding cake during the sale is 16.
