Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the process of elimination as
5x + 4y = 24
5(x + 7y = 11) —> 5x + 35y = 55
5x + 4y = 24
-(5x + 35y = 55)
—————————
-31y = -31
-31y/-31 = -31/-31
y=1
Answer:
Varies directly uses the formula: y/x = k
22/3 = 7.33
105/x = 7.33
105/x (7.33/x) = 7.33(x/7.33)
105/7.33 = x
x = 14.32
Answer:
<u>Remove "x" and add</u>
-2 + 9 = 7
<u>Add "x" back</u>
7 -----> 7x
Note: When adding/subtracting problems like these remove "x" and then add/subtract normaly. When you get your answer put x back.
a) 75 percent of the regular price is the price for senior citizens.
b) $6.712 is the price for senior citizens.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
- The regular price is the 100% = $8.95
- The offer price for senior citizen = 15% discount from 100%
∴ Percent of the regular price for senior citizens = 100% - 15% = 75%
The price for the senior citizens = 75% of $8.95
⇒ (75/100)8.95
⇒ 0.758.95
⇒ 6.712 dollars.
∴ The price for senior citizens = $6.712
