Th owner must buy 7 Jackets

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Purchase price=$55 , Sell Price= $77

  Sell Price = $55+$22

                   = Purchase price + 40*55/100

                   =Purchase price + 40% of Purchase price

                    =140% of purchase price

b. Purchase Price=$35

    Sell price=140%of $35

                    =140*$35/100

                    =$49

Number of Jackets required for the total sale to be $340 = $340/$49

                                                                                                =6.94

So We get the result by rounding off because Jackets cannot be in fraction, which is 7

Y=2x +1 x=3. how do I find the Y in each equation
fiasKO [112]
Since we already have X, I'm guessing all the question asks you to do is plug it in and solve it to get a Y= equation

If I'm right, then the process is

Y=2(3)+1 (putting 3 in place of x)

Y=6+1

Y=7

Which makes 7 your answer
