Answer:
24) $495
25) 14%
26) 25/X = 83/100
27) 0.7p
28) x + .085x and 1.085x
29) $221.90
30) $24.10
31) $6.13
32) 40%
Step-by-step explanation:
24) 600 - (600 × 0.25) = 450
450 × 1.10 = 495
25) (106 - 93) ÷ 93 = 0.13978
0.13978 × 100 = 13.978 ~ 14
27) 1.0 - 0.3 = 0.7
28) 1.00 + 0.085 = 1.085
29) 100% - 15% = 85%
240 × 0.85 = 204
204 × 1.0875 = 221.85
30) 25.89 × 4 = 103.56
103.56 + 179.99 = 283.55
283.55 × 0.085 = 24.10175
31) 8.75 × 0.70 = 6.125
32) 80 - (80 × 0.40) = 48
Hi!
So we have to make a system of equations here.
Let sibling 1 be O and sibling 2 be Y (for older and younger)
So:
O + Y = 64
O = 64 - Y
(Either one works)
The older sibling is 6 years older.
O = Y + 6
Make everything in terms of Y.
64 - Y = Y + 6
Same to both:
58 = 2y
2y = 58
Divide by 2 on both sides:
y = 29
Since the older sibling is 6 years older:
29 + 6 = 35
Y = 29
O = 35
Let me know if you have any questions.
