Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Let the numbers be x, y and z</u>
- x + y + z = 24
- 2y = z + 2
- z = x + y
<u>Solving by substitution:</u>
- x + y + z = z + z = 24
- 2z = 24
- z = 12
- 2y = z + 2
- 2y = 12 + 2
- 2y = 14
- y = 7
- z = x + y
- x = z - y
- x = 12 - 7 = 5
<u>The answer:</u>
Answer:
<h2><u>
15.12 is the discount</u></h2><h2><u>
68.88 is the sell price</u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
When you are taking off percentages from numbers, you first want to make the percent a number. This step is super simple. Just divide the 18 by 100
This gets you 0.18
Now multiply
84 * 0.18 = 15.12
So 15.12 is the discount
Then take 84 and subtract 15.12
84 - 15.12 = 68.88
So 68.88 is the sell price
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2x-y=7
y=2x+3
Substitute (2x+3) in for y in the first equation
2x-(2x+3)=7
2x-2x-3=7
-3=7
Becuase -3 does not equal 7 the answer is no solution
