If he bought the bike for $400 and lost 35% of his profit, you would divide 35 by 100. Next, you would multiply that number (0.35) by 400. When you do that, you get an answer of $140. In conclusion, if he bought the bike for $400 and sold it at a loss of 35%, he would lose $140 from that $400.
Additionally, if you wanted to know what exactly he sold it for, you would simply subtract 140 from 400. Which would be $260.
So, he bought the bike for $400, but when he resold it, he lost $140 of that pay. Basically, he resold the bike for $260.
I hope this helps! :) Let me know if you need help with anything else!
D.
it is a linear function as each time x increases by 1, y increases by 18
The answer i got was x=2 :)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
x−2 over 3−(x+3 over 5)=−1
Simplify: (Show steps)
2 over 15x+−19 over 15=−1
Step 2: Add 19/15 to both sides.
2 over 15x+−19 over 15+19 over 15=−1+19 over 15
2 over 15x=4 over 15
Step 3: Multiply both sides by 15/2.
(15 over 2)*(2 over 15x)=(15 over 2)*(4 over 15)
Answer: 2cd - 34c + 4d - 7
