do you have a picture of the border?
x ≤ 2.6 would look like this on the number line, the 2.6 part would be shaded in as well and not left open since x is less than OR EQUAL to 2.6
Let's say the tv was 100$ . Reduced by 20% means the tv is now 100 - 20 = 80% of the original price.
0.8(100) = 80$
Reduced again; by 10% means that it is now 100-10 = 90% of the 80$
0.9(80) = 72$
sale price ÷ original price
72$ / 100$ = 0.72 which is 72% of the original price. Which is a mark down of:
100 - 72 = 28%
The new price is 28% lower than the original price.
I believe the answer would be 8/12 and reduced to 2/3 when you divide the top and bottom by 4

You can solve both equations for y and then set equal to each other. Then use the quadratic equation to solve for x
