Let C be Clowns R Fun charge for b balloons and S be Singing Balloons charge.
C=6+1.25b and S=2+1.95b. C must be less than S.
6+1.25b<2+1.95b, 4<0.7b, b>4/0.7, b>40/7, b>5. So Mrs Travis needs to purchase more than 5 balloons.
13 143rds would be written as 13/143.
62.5% of 8 is 5 so it's b
Answer:
(3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
2+4 = 6
3-7 = -4
6/2 = 3
-4/2 = -2
Here are two ways of doing it.
************************************************************
1) The current price is 100% of the price. The price went down by 6%, so since 100% - 6% = 94%, the new price is 94% of the original price.
94% * 175 = 0.94 * 175 = 164.50
The new price is 164.50
*******************************************************
2) The discount is 6% of 175, so first, we find the discount.
6% of 175 = 0.06 * 175 = 10.5
Now we subtract the amount of the discount from the original price.
175 - 10.50 = 164.50
The new price is 164.50
**********************************************************
As you can see, both methods give you the same answer, 164.50
