Answer:
Store A and it would cost $32.40 (answer choice A)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by studying how much she would pay for a single balloon on each store:
In store A: (5 balloons for $6) then per each balloon: $6/5 = $1.2 per balloon.
In store BA: (13 balloons for $16.25) then per each balloon: $16.25/13 = $1.25 per balloon.
This shows us that the better price is in store A if she wants to pay as little as possible. Now, at that price, if she wants to buy 27 balloons, she will be paying (27 times $1.2): 27 * $1.2 = $32.40
Answer: 64.29%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total earnings of the Lee family in May be x
Amount earned by Mr Lee in May = 60% of x = 0.6x
Amount earned by other family members in May = x - 0.6x (total earnings - Mr Lee's earnings) = 0.4x
Amount earned by Mr Lee in June = 20% more than what Mr Lee earned in May.
That is, amount earned by Mr Lee in June = 1.2 × 0.6x = 0.72x
Amount earned by other members of the family in June remains unchanged, that is = 0.4x
Total amount earned by the Lee family in June = 0.72x + 0.4x = 1.12x
Percentage of total earnings in June earned by Mr. Lee = (0.72x/1.12x) × 100% = 64.29%.

Answer:
No, it's not equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
Try and solve the one with the bracket first. Expand 8(15-r) : 8x15 and 8x-r = 120 - 8r
Therefore, the equation can now be written as:
6r-r + 120-8r + 23-6
Rearrange the like terms together and solve the equation:
6r-r-8r + 120+23-6 = -3r + 137
