  60    +  36   =  96
(6x10)+(6x6 )
96-60=36
10+6=16

96 ÷ 6 = 16
6x16=96
Jared can put 16 books in each shelf.

The price of a pair of jeans is $25. If there is a 15% discount, what is the sale price of the jeans?
dusya [7]

Answer:

$29.41

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the discount price is 25 and the original is unknown so call it x. The sale is 15% off and that means that the jeans are 85% of what they used to be since 100-15 is 85. Then you plug it into a formula of 25/x = 85/100 then you cross multiply to get 2500=85x and when you solve for x and round you get $29.41

Two cars leave at the same time from points A and B, the distance between them is 280 km. If the cars meet each other, they’ll m
kykrilka [37]
Set up the following equations:

2x + 2y = 280

14x - 14y = 280

x represents car A's speed, and y represents car B's speed.

We'll use elimination to solve this system of equations. Multiply the first equation by 7:

(2x + 2y = 280) * 7 = 14x + 14y = 1960

14x - 14y = 280

Combine both equations:

28x = 2240

Divide both sides by 28 to get x by itself:

x = 80

The speed of car A is 80 mph.

Since we now know the value of one of the variables, we can plug it into the first equation:

2(80) + 2y = 280

160 + 2y = 280

Subtract 160 from both sides.

2y = 120

Divide both sides by 2 to get y by itself:

y = 60

The speed of car B is 60 mph.
