Answer:
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
My reasoning is that the sum of the numbers in the left is equal to the sum of the numbers in the right.
Therefore 6=2y+3
2y=6-3
2y=3
y=1.5 or 1and a half which is equivalent to 3/2
He saves $200 (the amount of change over the original amount $500
200/500 = 2/5 and 2/5 = 40% (divide 2 by 5 and get .4 which = 40%)
40% discount is the answer to your question
Basically you want to find an equivalent fraction for 3/5 in the answer choices.
12/20 equals 3/5 because 3/5 x 4/4 (or 1) = 12/20
answer: 4
I think the answer to y when x=4 and z=15; if y varies jointly as x and z y=5 when z=8 and x=10 is B. Y=1/2. Y•15; 12/4.
