Let the average cost of car in 2009 be $x, then the average cost of a car in 2013 is 2x - 5
25,000 = 2x - 5
2x = 25,000 + 5 = 25,005
x = 25,005/2 = $12,502.50

A pair of shoes cost $120 but they are 25% Off;
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

Discount = $30, Final price = $90

Step-by-step explanation:

25% is one quarter. 120/4=30

One quarter of 120 is 30, so - 30 would give discounted price of $90.

Similarly you could think of it like the discounted price is 75% of the original one and do 120x0.75=90 to find 75% of 120.

Hope this helped!
