Ok so what I would do Is I would do 3 x p=m
Cost of lack increased by 30%
new cost of lack will be = 100% + 30% = 130%
We are given that new cost = £65
Thus 130% of original cost = 65
100% of original cost = 65 × 100/130 = £50
Thus original price was £50
Answer:
2y - 15
Step-by-step explanation:
well 15 LESS than TWICE a number. okay so let’s start off by making a variable for the unknown number.... y. the variable is y. so now we have to think, TWICE that number, but we don’t know the number.
Now that we have the variable and we know it has to be doubled, let’s start off making the first half... we can out that into 2y. which is 2 multiplied by the unknown number.
now that we have the first half done, we have to take the 15 less. Less can mean or subtract in this kind of situation. but for this certain scenario, it will be subtraction. so the equation would be 2y - 15.
Notice the point R
is a vertex between two "vertical angles"
those two folks are also the same
so now, we have the left triangle has angle P equals to angle T on the other triangle
we also have the side on the left triangle of PR equals the side of TR on the other triangle, and those two verticals angles are equal to each other
does ASA ring a bell?
