Let Ted be x.
Ed is 7 years older = x + 7
Ed = (3/4)Ted
(x + 7) = (3/4)x
x + 7 = 3x/4
x - 3x/4 = -7
x/4 = -7
x = -28, Ted = -28 years.
(x + 7) = -28 + 7 = -21, Ed = -21 years

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
We know a ream of paper has a list price of $25.50. Custom Greetings placed an order for 300 of them. If they have purchased them at list price, the total price would have been
300*25.50=$7,650
But we also know there was a 35% trade discount, so the net price of their order is
$7,650-$7,650*35/100=$4972.50
