Answer:
original price = $30.00
Step-by-step explanation:
note that the original price is 100% , then
1% = $1.50 ÷ 5 = $0.30 , so
100% = 100 × $0.30 = $30.00
Answer:X=5/6 Y=8/5
Step-by-step explanation:
-6x +5y=3
+6x
5y=6x+3 (divide each number by 5)
Y=6/5x + 3/5 (Plug that into your x equation)
12x+15 (6/5x + 3/5) =34
(Multiply 15 by the numbers in the brackets you can break it down and do 15•6 divided by 5 )
15•6=90 divided by 5=18x
15•3= 45 divided by 5=9
(Add like variables)
12x+18x=30x
30x+9=34
(Subtract 9 from itself do the same to 34)
9-9= 0
34-9=25
Divide 30 by itself to get x by itself then divide 25 by 30
25 divided by 30= 5/6
X=5/6 (plug that into the y equation)
Y=6/5•5/6+3/5
Multiply 6/5 and 5/6 straight across because this is multiplication you don't need like denominators
6/5•5/6=30/30=1
Y=1+3/5
1/1 + 3/5
Here you need to have like denominators because it is addition so just use 5
5•1=5
5/5+3/5=8/5
Y=8/5
