Find the original price of a pair of shoes that was discounted 20% and now sell for $54

<h2>$67.50</h2><h2 />

Original price = x

The original price of a pair of shoes was discounted 20%.

20% = 20/100 = 0.2

1 - 0.2 = 0.8

x * 0.8

Now they sell for $54.

x * 0.8 = 54

Solve to find x.

54 / 0.8 = x

x = 67.5

Convert that to currency.

<h2>$67.50</h2>

Basher collected 4 1/3 basket of peaches and Orchard if each basket holds 21
miv72 [106K]
To do this you times 3 by 4 and add it on to the numerator of the fraction, to turn it into a top heavy fraction:
3*4 = 12
1+12/3 = 13/3

Then you multiply the numerator by 21 to work out what 21 times the fraction is:
13*21/3 = 273/3

Then you can divide 273 by 3 to get the final answer:
273/3 = 91

He will have 91 peaches overall.
Hope this helps! :)

If y varies directly as x and y-21 when x<br> is 7, find x when y = -5.
klasskru [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, y varies directly as x:

\therefore \: y = kx..(1) \\ (k = constant \: of \: proportionality) \\ at \: y = 21 \: and \: x = 7 \\ 21 = k \times 7 \\ k =  \frac{21}{7}  = 3 \\ plugging \: k = 3 \: in \: equation \: (1) \\ y = 3x..(2) \\ plugging \:  \: y =  - 5  \: in \: (2)\\  - 5 = 3x \\ x =  \frac{ - 5}{3}  \\   \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: \huge \red{ \boxed{x =  -  \frac{5}{3} }}

How many solutions does the equation y=mx have
kherson [118]

Answer:A solution to an equation is the value or values of the variable or variables that make the equation a true statement. Graphically, solutions are the intersections of the graphs of the left side and the right side, or if the equation is written so that one side is zero, we are looking for the x-intercepts (for real solutions.)

Periodic functions can have infinite solutions. For instance, cos(x)=1 has as solutions x=2n*pi, n in ZZ (or n an integer.) Periodic functions can...
