Clara= 30+45 (75)
Adam = 2x75 (150)
745+5+150=270min
the original price is "x", or 100%.
but we know that if we reduce "x" by 20%, namely 100% - 20% = 80%, the 80% of "x" is really £50, what is "x" or the 100% anyway?

Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
(7-2)/(17-2)=5/15=1/3
A vertical line has the equation of x = a
If the vertical line goes through a certain point, as in this case, then the y value is irrelevant. It can be anything. It is the x value that is the one you need to use.
So the answer is x = 1. This equation has no slope that is defined.
Based on the given problem above, here is the solution.
Given: Iris's charge: 470
1 1/5 times her fee: additional hourly rate
? = fee for an hourly rate
What we need to do first is divide 470 by 7 hours, so 470/7 = 67.143/hour.
So Iris's per hour is 67.143 without the additional rate.
Now, let's look for the 1 1/5 of 470. 1 1/5 is equal to 1.2. So 470 x 1.2 = 564.
To get the total fee of her hourly rate, we add 67.143 and 564, so Iris's hourly rate then is 631.143 or 631.14.
