Well, the answer to the question in your picture is $1200.
If x is the original price, and we took 23%, or 0.23 from that, we are left with 77%, or 0.77 of the full price.
So 0.77x = 924
x = 924/0.77
x = 1,200
1200 - 0.23(1200) = 924
924 = 0.77x

Answer:
(x, y) = (5, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
To <em>eliminate</em> x, you can double the second equation and subtract the first.
... 2(x +4y) -(2x -3y) = 2(9) -(7)
...11y = 11 . . . . . simplify
... y = 1 . . . . . . divide by 11
Using the second equation to find x, we have ...
... x + 4·1 = 9
... x = 5 . . . . . subtract 4
_____
<u>Check</u>
2·5 -3·1 = 10 -3 = 7 . . . . agrees with the first equation
(Since we used the second equation to find x, we know it will check.)
