Answer:
85% off $51 is $43.35 which equals to $7.65
Amanda paid only $7.65 for the 85% off the original price.
Step-by-step explanation:
11x = 44
X=4
44 + 7 = 51
5x = 20
31 + 20 =51
51 = 51
If you eliminate the parentheses, then add mq, you have
... y - p + mq = mx
Then dividing by m gives you the equation for x:
... x = (y - p + mq)/m
Answer:
price of each bags of popcorn = $9.75
price of each drinks = $5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
price of each bags of popcorn = a
price of each drinks = b
Caleb total cost
7a + 2b = 78.25.......(i)
Jeremiah total cost
a + 10b = 59.75.......(ii)
7a + 2b = 78.25
a + 10b = 59.75
a = 59.75 - 10b
insert the value of a in equation (i)
7a + 2b = 78.25
7( 59.75 - 10b) + 2b = 78.25
418.25 - 70b + 2b = 78.25
418.25 - 68b = 78.25
418.25 - 78.25 = 68b
340 = 68b
b = 340/68
b = 5
Insert the value of b in equation (ii)
a + 10b = 59.75.......(ii)
a + 10 × 5 = 59.75
a = 59.75 - 50
a = 9.75
price of each bags of popcorn = $9.75
price of each drinks = $5
It has reflectional symmetry
