Answer:

The purchase price is $180

The total price is: $189

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales tax rate = 5\%

Sales tax on bike = $9

We need to find the purchase price.

Let purchase price = x

We know that Sales tax = 5% of x

and Total price = Purchase Price + Sales tax

So, we can write:

Sales tax = 5% of x

Putting values and finding x

9 =5\% \:of\: x\\9=\frac{5}{100}\:of\:x \\x= \frac{9*100}{5}\\x=180

So, the value of x i.e Purchase price = $180

The purchase price is $180

Now finding the total price of bicycle

Total price = Purchase Price + Sales tax

Total price = 180 + 9

Total price = $189

So, The total price is: $189

Peter has twice as many stickers as Joe. Joe has 40 more stickers than Emily. They have 300 Stickers altogether. How many sticke
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

170

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations derived from given info.

  • P=2J
  • J=E+40
  • P+J+E=300

Use some substitution now.

  • P=2(E+40)
  • J=E+40
  • P+J+E=300

Substitute first and second equation into third.

  • 2(E+40)+E+40+E=300
  • 2E+80+E+40+E=300
  • 4E+120=300
  • 4E=180
  • E=45

Emily has 45 stickers. But we want to know what Peter has.

Use P=2(E+40)

  • P=2(45+40)
  • P=90+80
  • P=170

Peter has 170 stickers.
