Let x be the smaller number.
So the bigger number is x+19 (Their difference is 19)
Their sum: 53
You didn't list the options
btw
the next step should be
(add 4 to both sides)
2y = 16
or
2y - 4 + 4 = 12 + 4
The easiest way to calculate this, since you don't need to know what the discount is, if the decrease is 4% you still have 96%.
Multiply 29,000 x .96= $27,840.
If you do it the other way, .04 x 29000= 1160. Then subtract 29000-1160=27850.
I am quite confused what this problem asks about.
We are given that:
4,000 / 10 is equal to hundred / 10
I believe this problem is asking us how much in hundreds
is 4,000
Therefore the answer is: 40
Such that:
<span>4,000 / 10 = 40 hundreds / 10</span>
