Answer:

a) Sale Price; Rs. 800        Discount rate: 20%

b) Sale Price; Rs. 4000     Discount rate: 20%

c) Sale Price; Rs. 6000     Discount rate: 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

In these problems, one is given a list of original prices and the amount of price taken off during a discount. One has to find the sale price and the rate of discount. The easiest way to find the sale price is to subtract the discount price from the original price. The general train of thought to do this can be found in the following formula:

(original\ price)-(discount\ amount)=(sale\ price)

One is also asked to find the rate of discount. Use the following proportion format to do so:

\frac{discount\ amount}{original\ price}=\frac{percent}{100}

Substitute each of the values in the given problem into the equation and solve for the price.

2. Part A

Original price: 1000

Discount: 200

<u>1. Sale price</u>

  • Formula
  • (original\ price)-(discount\ amount)=(sale\ price)
  • Substitute and solve,
  • 1000-200=(sale\ price)
  • \\800 = sale\ price

<u>2. Discount rate</u>

  • Formula
  • \frac{discount\ amount}{original\ price}=\frac{percent}{100}
  • Substitute, simplify, and solve
  • \frac{200}{1000}=\frac{percent}{100}
  • \frac{1}{5}=\frac{percent}{100}
  • (5)(percent)=1(100)
  • percent=20

3. Part B

Original price: 5000

Discount: 1000

<u>1. Sale price</u>

  • Formula,
  • (original\ price)-(discount\ amount)=(sale\ price)
  • Substitute and solve
  • 5000-1000=(sale\ price)
  • 4000=(sale\ price)

<u>2. Discount rate</u>

  • Formula
  • \frac{discount\ amount}{original\ price}=\frac{percent}{100}
  • Substitute, simplify, and solve
  • \frac{1000}{5000}=\frac{percent}{100}
  • \frac{1}{5}=\frac{percent}{100}
  • 5(percent)=1(100)
  • percent=20

4. Part C

Original price: 8000

Discount: 2000

<u>1. Sale price</u>

  • Formula
  • (original\ price)-(discount\ amount)=(sale\ price)
  • Substitute and solve
  • 8000-2000=(sale\ price)
  • 6000=(sale\ price)

<u>2. Discount rate</u>

  • Formula,
  • \frac{discount}{amount}=\frac{percent}{100}
  • Substitute, simplify and solve,
  • \frac{2000}{8000}=\frac{percent}{100}
  • \frac{1}{4}=\frac{percent}{100}
  • 4(percent)=1(100)
  • percent=25

How many solutions does this system have?
Julli [10]

Answer:

one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets start to solve the question

- The 1st equation x - y = -4

- The 2nd equation 3x + y = 8

- We will use the elimination method to solve this system of equation

∵ x - y = -4 ⇒ (1)

∵ 3x + y = 8 ⇒ (2)

- Add the two equation (1) and (2) to eliminate y

∴ x + 3x = -4 + 8

∴ 4x = 4

- Divide both sides by 4

∴ x = 1

- Substitute the value of x in equation (1) or equation (2) to find

  the value of y

- We will use equation (1)

∴ 1 - y = -4

Subtract 1 from both sides

∴ -y = -5

- Divide both sides by -1

∴ y = 5

∴ The solution is (1 , 5)

* The system has one solution

LenKa [72]

Answer:

y = 1/4x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

So we do not have the capabilities of graphing but I will help you find the equation.

Slope intercept form: y = mx + b

b = y intercept

m = slope

Put your equation together.

y = 1/4x - 8
