so she saved $20 and that was 40% of the regular price, let's say the regular price is "x".
if 20 is 40%, what is "x" or namely the 100%?

Step-by-step answer:
Given:
two inequalities:
4-x <= -1 ........................(1)
2+3x >= 17......................(2)
Required: find the solution of the intersection of inequalities.
Solution:
Solution to (1):
4-x <= -1 transpose
4+1 <=x simplify
5 <= x rewrite
x >= 5
Solution to (2)
2+3x >= 17
3x >= 17-2
3x >= 15
x >= 5
The intersection of the two solutions x>=5 and x>=5 is therefore x>=5
Check:
x=4, => 4-4 = 0 >1 so not a solution
x=4, => 2+3(4) = 14 < 17 so not a solution
x=5, => 4-5 = -1 so a solution
x=5, => 2+3(5) = 17, so a solution.
similarly for 6, 7, ....
Answer:146
Step-by-step explanation:
(13x² + 5x) + 8x²
= (13 + 8)x² + 5x
= 21x² + 5x
