---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Original Price
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
$129.50

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Discount
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
40% of $129.50
= 0.4 x 129.50
$51.80

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Price after discount
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
$129.50 - $51.80 = $77.70

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Further discount of 60%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
60% of $77.70
=  0.6 x 77.7
= $46.62

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Price after discount
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
$77.70 - $46.62 = $31.08

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: It is not free. It still cost $31.08.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Harpreet        = x + 3

Sukhpreet     = x

Komalpreet   = 2*(x + 3)

Average Age = 15

Equation

[(x + 3) + x + 2*(x + 3) ] / 3 = 15                  Multiply both sides by 3

Solution

3 [(x + 3) + x + 2*(x + 3) ] / 3 = 15 * 3         Combine

 [(x + 3) + x + 2*(x + 3) ]       =   45             Remove the brackets

x + 3 + x + 2x + 6                 =   45             Combine like terms

4x + 9 = 45                                                 Subtract 9 from both sides

4x + 9 - 9 = 45 - 9                                       Combine

4x = 36                                                         Divide by 4

4x/4 = 36/4

x = 9

Answer

Harpreet is  x+ 3 = 9 + 3 = 12
