Answer: £5000

Step-by-step explanation:

If 12% decrease = £600

Then (100- 12)% = x

100% = x

0.12x = 600 x 0.88

0.12x = 528

Divide both sides by 0.12

£4400

Therefore, original price before 12% decrease was £5000

Find the value of x I’d appreciate if you could explain as well if not that’s fine

All the angles in a circle equal to 360 degrees. So basically just add up all the known values: 23+23+15=61 and then subtract that from 360: 360-61=299.

You can also do 23+23+15+x=360. Adding it all becomes 61+x=360, subtract 61 from both sides of the equation, and you get x=299.

(Something to help remember is that the angle is obtuse, meaning it’s automatically more than 90 degrees, hope this helps!)

The function C(x)=17.5x-10 represents the cost (in dollars) of buying x tickets to the orchestra with a $10 coupon. How much doe
Rudiy27

Answer:

8 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 10 in the given equation.

We have then:

C (x) = 17.5x - 10

C (10) = 17.5 * (10) - 10

C (10) = 165

Answer:

to buy 10 tickets cost:

$ 165

b. How many tickets can you buy with $ 130?  

For this case we must make the substitution: C (x) = 130

We have then:

C (x) = 17.5x - 10

130 = 17.5x - 10

Clearing x we have:

17.5x = 130 + 10

17.5x = 140

x = (140) / (17.5)

x = 8

Answer:

You can buy 8 tickets with $ 130
