Answer:
$400
Step-by-step explanation:
If the price after taking 25% off is $300, then $300 is 75% of the original price.
$300 = 0.75p
$300/0.75 = p = $400
The original price was $400.
_____
<em>Check</em>
0.25 × $400 = $100
$400 -100 = $300 . . . . the price after taking 25% off
Answer:
y = (6/11)x + 13/11
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + c
m = (-1-5)/(-4-7) = -6/-11 = 6/11
y = (6/11)x + c
When x = 7, y = 5
5 = (6/11)(7) + c
5 = 42/11 + c
c = 5 - 42/11
c = 13/11
y = (6/11)x + 13/11
11y = 6x + 13
v + m = 32 and v = 5 + 2m are the equations that are used to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has
Number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23
<h3>
<u>Solution:</u></h3>
Let "v" be the number of stuffed animals with Veronica
Let "m" be the number of stuffed animals with Mariposa
Given that,
Together, they have 32 stuffed animals
Therefore,
v + m = 32 --------- eqn 1
Veronica has 5 more than double the number of stutted animals as her friend Mariposa
Therefore,
Number of stuffed animals with Veronica = 5 + 2(number of stuffed animals with Mariposa)
v = 5 + 2m ---------- eqn 2
Thus eqn 1 and eqn 2 can be used to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has
Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2
Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1
5 + 2m + m = 32
5 + 3m = 32
3m = 32 - 5
3m = 27
<h3>m = 9</h3>
Substitute m = 9 in eqn 2
v = 5 + 2(9)
v = 5 + 18
<h3>v = 23</h3>
Thus number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23
When going through York Canal, his speed is 1 mile per 3 minutes.
If going by this speed while crossing Stover Lake, he would drive 10 miles in 30 minutes.
Therefore, he drove 10 miles.
