Answer:
Ryan 40
Stacy 17
Step-by-step explanation:
x -----> Stacy
x + 23 -----> Ryan
x + 6 Stacy
x + 23 + 6 Ryan
x + 29 Ryan
x + 29 = 2(x + 6)
x + 29 = 2x + 12
x - 2x = 12 - 29
-x = - 17
x = 17 Stacy
x + 23
17 + 23
40 Ryan
Answer:
87.5
Step-by-step explanation:
100 - (12.5% × 100)
100 - 12.5% × 100
(1 - 12.5%) × 100
(100% - 12.5%) × 100
87.5% × 100
87.5 ÷ 100 × 100
87.5 × 100 ÷ 100
8,750 ÷ 100 = 87.5

Answer:27 pieces were sold at the original price.
63 pieces were sold at the new price
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of pieces of pottery that was sold at the original price.
Let y represent the number of pieces of pottery that was sold at the new price.
They sold some of their pottery at the original price of $9.50 for each piece. This means that the amount that they got from selling x pieces of pottery at the original price would be 9.5x
They later decreased the price of each piece by $2. This means that the new price was 9.5 - 2 = $7.5
This means that the amount that they got from selling x pieces of pottery at the new price would be 7.5y
If they sold all 90 pieces and took in $729, then the equations are
x + y = 90
9.5x + 7.5y = 729 - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 90 - y into equation 1, it becomes
9.5(90 - y) + 7.5y = 729
855 - 9.5y + 7.5y = 729
- 9.5y + 7.5y = 729 - 855
- 2y = - 126
y = - 126/- 2 = 63
Substituting y = 63 into x = 90 - y, it becomes
x = 90 - 63 = 27
