Answer:

  $125

Step-by-step explanation:

With a 20% off coupon, the price you pay is 80% of the marked price. If that amount is $100, you have ...

  $100 = 0.80p

  p = $100/0.80 = $125

The maximum price of the shoes you can buy is $125.

_____

<em>Check</em>

20% of $125 is -.20×$125 = $25. When that is subtracted, the price you pay is ...

  $125 -25 = $100

Answer:

$125

Step-by-step explanation:

let the maximum price be 'x'

x -( \frac{20}{100} \times x) = 100

x - ( \frac{x}{5} ) = 100

\frac{4x}{5}  = 100

4x = 500

x = 125

Solve and show all work |2×+3| -6=11​
mash [69]

Answer:

x = -10; x = 7  

Step-by-step explanation:

|2x + 3| - 6 =11

Add 6 to each side.

|2x + 3| = 17

Apply the absolute rule: If |x| = a, then x = a or x = -a.

(1) 2x + 3 = 17                    (2) 2x + 3 = -17

Subtract 3 from each side

         2x = 14                                 2x = -20

Divide each side by 2

          x = 7                                   x = -10

<em>Check: </em>

(1) |2(7) + 3| - 6 = 11                     (2) |2(-10) + 3| - 6 = 11

      |14 + 3| - 6 = 11                              |-20 + 3| - 6 = 11

             |17| - 6 = 11                                     |-17| - 6 = 1 1

              17 - 6 = 11                                        17 - 6 = 11

                    11 = 11                                              11 = 11
