Answer:
1. $450
2. $128
Step-by-step explanation:
1. new price = .4 (.4 * original price x)
72 = .16x
x = 450
2. new price = .75 (.75 * original price x)
72 = .5625x
x = 128
Answer:
Part 1) 
Part 2) 
Part 3) 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
EB=ED+DB
ED=DB -----> given problem
Substitute the given values and solve for x




<em>Find the value of ED</em>

substitute the value of x

<em>Find the value of DB</em>
Remember that
ED=DB
therefore

<em>Find the value of EB</em>
EB=ED+DB

To solve this I'm going to split the middle term.
First multiply the first and last terms:
24x^2
So find two numbers that multiply to 24x^2 and add to 11x.
This would be 3x and 8x
Rewrite the problem as
4x^2+3x+8x+6
Take the first and 3rd and 2nd and 4th terms
4x^2 and 8x
and
3x and 6
Factor by grouping
Take out a 4x for the first group to get 4x(x+2)
Take out a 3 for the 2nd group to get 3(x+2)
Rewrite as (4x+3)(x+2)
Hope this helps.
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
x=pizza
y= breadsticks
3x+2y=30
2x+3y=25
first we myltiply the top equation with 3 and then w emultiply the lower equation with -2 so it is
9x+6y=90
-4x-6y= -50
now we can add them together and the y contracts
5x=40
now we divide it by 5
x=8
So pizza costs 8
Answer:
2y+9 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer is 2y+9 1/2 because 1/4y+1 3/4y=2y and 1 1/2+2+ (-12) (12 is negative because its minus 12)=9 1/2 so the answer is 2y+9 1/2
