Answer:

50 and 30.94

Step-by-step explanation:

  • a

The coat cost 46.5 pounds after a 7 percent reduction

so we can write:

  • 46.5⇒ (100-7)⇒ 93 percent
  • x(the initial price) ⇒ 100 percent

using the proprtionality relation:

x= (100*46.5)/93 = 50

so the initial price of the coat is 50 pounds

  • b

The jumper costs 32.8 pounds after an increase of 6 percent

so:

  • 32.8⇒(100+6)⇒ 106 percent
  • x (the initial price)⇒ 100 percent

using proportionality:

x= (100*32.8)/106 = 30.94

the initial price is 30.94 pounds

Answer:

a. £50

b. £30.94

Step-by-step explanation:

100-7=93

x×93/100=46.50

x×93=46.50×100=4650

x=4650/93=50 £

b.

100+6=106

y×106/100=32.80

y×100=32.80×100=3280

y=3280/106≈30.94£

For A) u must start at -3 on y lines. Then move points up 1 and 3 to the right. Makes point and continue to make lines
For B) start at 5 on y lines, and remember -x is same thing is -1. And negative means go down! So move 1 down and 1 to the right and make point then move 1 down and make 1 right and make second points and continue. Draw a lines.

The solution is when u see two lines from two equations crosses to each other. There’s solution shown.

How old am i if 200 reduced by 2 times my age equals 16?
Anna [14]
Ok, so since it doesn't give a value for "my age", we'll call it x.  So the sentence translates into an equation...

200 reduced means... 200 -
by 2 times my age means... 2x
equals 16 means... = 16

200 - 2x = 16

Now let's solve for x to find "my age"

First subtract 200 from each side to begin to isolate x

-2x = -184

Divide each side by -2 to isolate x

x = -184/-2
x = 92

I'm 92 years old!
