80% = $56
1% = $56/80 = $70
100% = $70 * 100 = $700
Original price = $700
Hope this helps.

Luis’ sample would be the most random, because not everyone in the cafeteria might check out books from the library, but since everyone Samantha surveyed was in the library already, most of the people she surveyed would be more consistent in their responses.
Solve for y...
2xy=1
y=1/(2x)
So this is a function as each x value (with the exception of x=0) produces just one value for y. However, technically there is a vertical asymptote about the vertical line x=0. So there is a discontinuity as x=0.
I say this technically, because most would say that this function is true even with the discontinuity (as they do with say y=tana), but technically the discontinuity makes this not a function because another requirement of a function is for their to be an actual output value for each input value. In this case division by zero when x=0 is undefined and cannot be included as part of a function. So if you are picky about being absolute, 2xy=1 is really two functions. One with a domain of (-oo,0) and another with a domain of (0,+oo).
You are asking this in the math section. It might be hard to find the answer that way.
