Answer:
The two numbers are 24 and 32
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the variable x
3x : 4x, would be a ratio of 3/4
now subtract 4 from both
3x - 4 : 4x - 4 = 5/7
3x-4 / 4x-4 = 5/7
cross multiplication
7(3x - 4) = 5(4x - 4)
21x - 28 = 20x - 20
x = 8
Two numbers are;
3x, 4x
3(8), 4(8)
24, 32
24/32 = 3/4
20/28 = 5/7

Answer:
No Jeremy can not find the cost of the sneakers by adding the percents, you have to the math one sale discount at a time.
The answer is $45.90.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to multiply $60 by 15%, getting $9. Subtract 9 from 60 and get the first discount price: $51. Then you will multiply 51 by `10% and get 5.1, subtract 5.1 from 51 and get your final sale price $45.90. If you added the percents together you would get an incorrect value of $45. Close but not the correct answer.
