Answer: £20.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the old price = £x
Percent increase. = 10%
Increment. = 10% of £x
= 10x/100
Now new price = £22
To determine the old price we have
x + 10x/100. = 22
We now multiply everything by 100 to make it a linear expression
100x + 10x = 2200
110x = 2200, therefore
x. = 2200/110
= £20
Therefore, the price before the increase. = £20.
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 2y = 12
Substituting y = 9, we find:
Similarly, solving for point B (4, __) =B (4, 0)
Answer:
<em>l</em> = 1 5/16
w = 1/16
A = 21/16 x 1/16 = 21/256
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 11/4
<em>l</em> = length
w = <em>l</em> - 5/4
2<em>l</em> + 2(<em>l</em> - 5/4) = 11/4
2<em>l</em> + 2<em>l</em> - -5/2 = 1/4
multiply each side by 4
8<em>l</em> + 8<em>l </em>- 10 = 11<em> </em>
16<em>l</em> = 21
<em>l</em> = 21/16 or 1 5/16
width = 21/16 - 20/16 = 1/16
