Answer:

560

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price

27% off

original price minus discount = new price

x - .27x = new price

.73x = new price

.73x = 409

Divide each side by .73

.73x/.73 = 409/.73

x=560.2739726

To the nearest dollar

x = 560

Use elimination using multiplication to solve 2x-y=-1<br> 3x-2y=1
saw5 [17]

Answer:

x = -3 and y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - y = -1  ⇒  y = 2x + 1

Substitute this into  3x - 2y = 1 to solve for x:

3x - 2(2x + 1 ) = 1  ⇒  3x - 4x - 2 = 1  ⇒  -x = 3  ⇒  x = -3

Now sub the value you found for x into y = 2x + 1 to find y:

y = 2(-3) + 1 = -5

So x = -3 and y = -5
