If x is the amount that Tanya paid for each item, then Tony's items would be x-2.25. So:
3x=4(x-2.25)
3x=4x-9
x=9
x-2.25=6.75
Tanya spent $9 on each item; Tony spent $6.75 on each of his items. ☺☺☺☺
Answer: the percent of study group students from outside the state is 13%
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of students in the young woman's study group that are from the town where the young woman's school is located is 7%
The total number of students in the young woman's study group that are from in-state (but not from the school's town) is 80%.
Since the rest are from outside the state, the percent of study group students from outside the state would be
100 - (80 + 7) = 100 - 87 = 13%
Answer:
-5.6
Step-by-step explanation:
first distribute the 2.5
also convert the 2/5 to decimal (0.4) because it's hard to work with both decimal and fraction

2.5y +1 = -13
y = -14/2.5 = -5.6
