Answer:

The point that represents what the local business will donate is (10, 5). After testing the point in both equations, you can see that student B wrote the correct equation; 5 = 1 /2  (10).

Answer:

If we let x be the number of ticket sold and y be the amount in dollars donated then, the equation would be,

                                     x = 2y

We can check our answer by substituting the given,

                                     10 = 2(5)

                                      10 = 10

The equation can also be written as,

                                    y = (1/2)x

Student B is correct.

I might be wrong but I think the answer would be -x+2x+6 as a simplified version because if you use the equation (x+4•x+3)-3x(x+1)=a (or any letter you choose), you will get 3x+x^2+12+4x-3x-3x^2=y. Then, you can combine like terms:
4x-2x+12=a

Jasmine buys the magic carpet on sale for $374. She saved $66 off the regular price. What percent was the price discounted?
Furkat [3]

Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the regular price of the carpet.

Then:  

sale price = regular price less discount

    $374    =           c     -     $66

Adding $66 to both sides isolates (solves for) c:

$374 + $66 = c  =   $440.  This is the regular price.

 $66

---------- = 0.15                      This is the fraction of the regular price by

$440                                   which the regular price is reduced.

Then the percentage of this discount was   0.15(100%) = 15%
