Answer:
53.12
Step-by-step explanation:
You can do it 2 ways
1st way
83 multiplied by .33
83 is the amount and .33 is the percent
Now you have the mark downed price, so you subtract that from the original of 83
2nd way
subtract 33 from 100 because the price is 33% off
now multiply 83 by 0.64 because the .64 represents 64%
Answer:
no solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = - 7x + 8 → (1)
y = - 7x - 8 → (2)
Substitute y = - 7x - 8 into (1)
- 7x - 8 = - 7x + 8 ( add 8 to both sides )
- 7x = - 7x + 16 (add 7x to both sides )
0 = 16 ← not possible
This indicates the system has no solutions
mechanic #1's rate = x
mechanic #2's rate = y
* Their rate is dollars per hour ($/hr)
mechanic #1 worked for 20 hours (hr × $/hr = $)
20x = money earned by mech#1
and mechanic #2 worked for 5 hours
5y = money earned by mech#2
together they charged a total of $1150. So the amount of money earned by both mechanics.
20x + 5y = 1150
the sum of the two rates was $95 per hour.
x + y = 95
which means
x = 95 - y
plug (95 - y) in for "x" in the other equation to get everything in terms of one variable.
20(95 - y) + 5y = 1150
solve for y
1900 - 20y + 5y = 1150
1900 - 15y = 1150
-15y = 1150 - 1900
-15y = -750
y = -750/-15
y = 50 $/hr
Now use this to solve for x
x + y = 95
x + 50 = 95
x = 95 - 50
x = 45 $/hr
mech#1 charged 45$/hr
mech #2 charged 50$/hr
