Since $14 is the price after a 30% discount then $14 is 70% of the original price.
$14/70=x/100 (100% would be the original price)
1400=70x or 1400/70 = $20!
You can double check the work by taking 30% off the $20 (10% would be $2, 30% would then be $6) 20-6=14!
32+n=105
32-32+n=105-32
n=73
Answer:
(x, y) = (2, -1.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 2y = -1
5x - 4y = 16
<=>
(2)x + (2)2y = (2)(-1)
5x - 4y = 16
<=>
2x + 4y = -2
5x - 4y = 16
<=>
7x = 14
<=>
x = 2
(*)x + 2y = -1
=> 2 + 2y = -1
=> 2y = -3
=> y = -1.5
=> (x, y) = (2, -1.5)
