Answer:
1:2 all you have to do is simplify
So first y = 3.50 + 15 = 18.5
Next 2x + y = -1.5
2x = -1.5 -y
2x = -1.5 - 18.5 = -20
x = -20/2 = -10
So
x = -10
y = 18.5
Answer:
We pay 18 percent of the original price
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the original price
We get 60 % off on clearance
That means we pay 100-60 = 40 % of the original price
New price = .4x
Now we get an additional discount of 55% off the new price.
100-55 = .45
We will have to pay 45% of the new price
.45 (.4x) = .18 x
We pay 18 percent of the original price
