Hello!
First you to do 65 * 0.20
0.20 is 20% as a decimal
65 * 0.20 = 13
$13 is how much John saves.
To find out how much the skateboard cost you subtract how much he saved by the cost of the skateboard
65 - 13 = 52
The skateboard cost $52
Hope this helps!
Answer:
(5,-1) or x=5 y=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
I used the substitution method to solve this!
<em>1. Pick one of your equations and solve for one of the variables. I chose the first equation and solved for x.</em>
x-2y=7
(Move the -2y to the other side of the equation in order to get the x by itself. You do the opposite, so it becomes +2y.)
x=2y+7
<em>2. Now take your second equation and plug in what you got for x into the x variable.</em>
2(2y+7)+5y=5
(Multiple 2 by everything inside of the parentheses.)
4y+14+5y=5
(We want to get the y by itself, so move the 14 to the other side.)
4y+5y=-14+5
(Combine all the like terms.)
9y=-9
(Divide the 9 from the y. What you do to one side you must do to the other.)
y=-1
<em>3. Since you have one variable solved for. Now take the first equation and plug in your y.</em>
x-2(-1)=7
(Multiple -2 by -1)
x+2=7
(Move the 2 to the other side in order to get the x by itself.)
x=5
<em>4. If needed, plug in your x and y values into the equations in order to check your answer.</em>
Hope this could help!

Alright 21 miles per hour. We know that there are 60 minutes in an hour. So this is basically saying 21 miles per 60 minutes. To find the rate for miles per minute, you divide 21 by 60 which is 0.35.
In one minute the cyclist rides 0.35 miles
In two minutes the cyclist rides 0.7 miles
