Answer:

He paid $ 531.8 for it

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Joshua sold his bike for $585

Since he sold it for 10% less than he paid for it, let the amount  he paid for it be x.

Then

x= $585 -(10 % of x)

=$585 - (0.1 x)

<u>Add 0.1x to both sides</u>

(1+0.1)x=585

1.1x=585

<u>Divide both sides by 1.1</u>

x=585/1.1

=531.8

Hi there!

A valley farmer has 26 employees and he pays each of them $410 per week.

After paying them for one week he has $162 dollars left. We need to find how much money he had at first.

So the first step is to multiply $410 on 26 since he gives 410 dollars to each employee, which he has 26.

$410 · 26 = $10,660

So he had $10,660 before he paid the workers, but he still had $162 left. To find out his overall total of money he had we need to add $10,660 and $162 which will be $10,822.

The farmer had $10,822

Hope this helped!~
