Answer:
D. 11
Step-by-step explanation:
T = total savings
w = number of weeks
Paige:
T = 350 + 25w
Cindy:
T = 190 + 40w
In how many weeks will Cindy have more money in her savings than Paige
Equate the total savings of both of them
350 + 25w = 190 + 40w
Collect like terms
350 - 190 = 40w - 25w
160 = 15w
w = 160/15
w = 10.67
Approximately,
In 11 weeks, will Cindy have more money in her savings than Paige
Check:
Paige:
T = 350 + 25w
= 350 + 25(11)
= 350 + 275
= 625
Cindy:
T = 190 + 40w
= 190 + 40(11)
= 190 + 440
= 630
So she lost 20% of the original selling price.
$64 is 80% of the original price.
64/80=0.8
0.8·100=80 dollars. HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
Answer:
45?
9 marbles x 5 (four of her friends plus jake)
Step-by-step explanation:
X + 5y = 1 . . . . (1)
8x - 2y = 3 . . . .(2)
Solution 1.
From (1), x = 1 - 5y
substituting for x in (2), we have:
8(1 - 5y) - 2y = 3
8 - 40y - 2y = 3
8 - 42y = 3
42y = 5
y = 5/42
x = 1 - 5(5/42) = 1 - 25/42 = 17/42.
Solution 2.
Multiply (1) by 8, to get:
8x + 40y = 8 . . . . . (3)
(3) - (2) = 40y - (-2y) = 8 - 3
42y = 5
y = 5/42
substitute for y into (3), to get:
8x + 40(5/42) = 8
8x + 100/21 = 8
8x = 8 - 100/21 = 68/21
x = (68/21)/8 = 17/42
