Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the discount in percentage offered for the price of the shirts.

The regular price of the shirts was $20

The price for which the shirt was offered for sale is $17 which also represents the discounted price.

The discount would be

20 - 17 = $3

The percentage discount would be

The discount/ the regular price × 100%.

Therefore,

% discount = 3/20 × 100 = 0.15 × 100

= 15%

The difference between two numbers is 16. Three times the larger number is seven times the smaller. What are the numbers?​
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

12 and 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the numbers using x and y.  Then y - x = 16.  (y is the larger one.)

Then 3y = 7x, and y = (7/3)x.

Substituting (7/3)x for y in y - x = 16, we get:

(7/3)x - x = 16.

Eliminate the fraction by multiplying all three terms by 3:

7x - 3x = 48, or 4x = 48, yielding x = 12.  Then y = (7/3)(12) = 28.
