Answer:
2 touchdowns, 3 field goals
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of touchdowns cannot be more than 3, so it is relatively easy to find the solution by trial and error.
23 is not divisible by 3, so 0 touchdowns is not a solution
23 -7 = 16 is not divisible by 3, so 1 touchdown is not a solution
23 -14 = 9 is divisible by 3, so 2 touchdowns and 3 field goals is a solution
21 -21 = 2 is not divisible by 3, so there is only one solution.
Answer: the total cost of the nightstand is $22
Step-by-step explanation:
The original price of the night stand is $50. If the original price of the night stand was marked down by 60%, it means that the amount of money by which it was reduced would be
60/100 × 50 = 0.6 × 50 = 30
The new selling price would be
50 - 30 = $20
If she paid 10% sales tax,the amount of tax paid would be
10/100 × 20 = 0.1 × 20 = 2
Therefore, the total cost of the nightstand would be
20 + 2 = $22
If 450 is 1/4 of the amount that Henry has, you can find Henry’s amount by multiplying 450 • 4 which gives you an answer of 1800
Or, if you’re looking for a more complicated way, which I doubt, you can set up the problem as:
1/4x=450 and solve by dividing 450 by 1/4
