After a 20% price reduction, a cordless phone sold for $48. What was the phones price before the reduction?

1 answer:

6 0

After 20% reduction the price is $48 which means $48 is only 80% of the original price...so let x= original price
48=.8x 
60=x 
it was $60

Answer:

roots and zeroes.

Explanation:

Zeroes are the solution of any polynomial equation, but when it comes to quadratic equation, we use the term, roots.

So therefore, we use the term zero, for it is a polynomial, and root, for it's a quadratic equation.

X = 2y − 4 7x + 5y = −66

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Substitute 2y-1 for x in the second equation:

7x + 5y = -66

7(2y-4) + 5y = -66

then solve for y:

14y - 28 + 5y = -66

19y = -38

y = -2

Substitute -2 for y in the first equation:

x = 2y - 4

x = 2(-2) - 4

x = -8

The lines intersect at (-8,-2)
