Answer:

$675

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = original price of laptop

Discount = 10%

Actual price paid = x - 10% of x

= x - .10x

= .90x

Cost of mouse = $13.99

Total amount paid = $621.49

Total amount paid = actual cost of laptop + Cost of mouse

621.49 = .90x + 13.99

621.49 - 13.99 = .90x

607.5 = .90x

x = 607.5 / .90

= 675

Original cost of the laptop = $675

A straight line is 180 degrees. To get x, you subtract 117 from 180.

180-117 is 63.

x= 63.

x+y is 90 degrees so to find y, you subtract x from 90.

90-63 is 26.

y=27.

Which ordered pairs in the form (x, y)(x, y) are solutions to the equation
Scilla [17]
4x - 5y = 24

4(6) - 5(0) = 24
24 - 0 = 24
24 = 24 (correct)....so (6,0) is a solution

4(1) - 5(-4) = 24
4 + 20 = 24
24 = 24 (correct)...and (1,-4) is a solution
