Answer:
90
Step-by-step explanation:
It could be anything that is less than -15. This is because -15 divided by -3 is 5.
Question: An aquarium is on sale for $59.50. If this price represents a 15% discount from the original price, what is the original price?
First, you multiply the sale price and the 15% discount
![$59.50*.15 = [tex]$8.92](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%2459.50%2A.15%20%3D%20%5Btex%5D%248.92)
[/tex] (To change the percent to a decimal, you take out the percentage sign and divide by 100)
Now add $59.50 to $8.92

Answer:
$68.43 (when rounded to the nearest cent)
or
$68 (when rounded to the nearest dollar)
or
$70 (when rounded to the nearest ten dollar)
The <em>correct answers</em> are:
It would take 5 months and she would save $250.
Explanation:
Let m be the number of months.
For the first way of saving, $200 up front and $10 each month, the expression would be
200+10m.
For the second way of saving, $100 up front and $30 each month, the expression would be
100+30m.
Setting them equal gives us the equation
200+10m = 100+30m
Subtract 10m from each side:
200+10m-10m = 100+30m-10m
200 = 100+20m
Subtract 100 from each side:
200-100 = 100+20m-100
100 = 20m
Divide both sides by 20:
100/20 = 20m/20
5 = m
It would take 5 months.
$200 up front and $10 each month for 5 months:
200+10m
200+10(5)
200+50
250
She would save $250.
The answer would be -4 because if you do -4 times 2x then you would get -8x. Then if you did -4 times -3 you would get 12. (A negative times a negative equals a positive)
