Answer:
112 $ is the original price
Step-by-step explanation:
you have to think that the original price multiplied by 0.75 (also known as 75%) gave the result of what he saves i.e 84 $. So we put up an equation with the original price multiplied by 75% which equals the 84 $ he saved on buying that item on sale
50% were invested in land, 10% were invested in stocks and 20% were invested in bonds.
Based on this, the total percentage of investments can be calculated as follows:
percentage of investments = 50% + 10% + 20% = 80%
The remaining percentage that was put into a saving account can be calculated as follows:
percentage of money in saving account = 100% - 80% = 20%
Now we know that the remaining is $35,000 represent the 20% of his money.
Assume his total amount of money is m, therefore:
20% x m = 35000
0.2m = 35,000
m = (35,000) / 0.2 = 175,000
Based on this, <span>the total amount of money that Mr. Rodriguez saves and invests is $175,000</span>
