Answer:

The solution to your inquiry can be found below

Step-by-step explanation:

First method

                      20 = 5(-3 + x)                   expanding this equation

                     20 = -15 + 5x                    combine like terms

                     5x = 20 + 15

                     5x = 35                            dividing by 5

                     5x/5 = 35/5

                     x = 7

Second method

                     20/5 = 5/5 (-3 + x)          divide both sides by 5

                     4  = -3 + x                        adding 3 to both sides

                     4 + 3 = -3 + 3 + x            simplifying

                     7 = x

As a smart consumer, you are always on the lookout for sales, coupons, and rebates. While shopping for new clothes, you notice t
Inessa [3907]

Answer:

You need to purchase 3 shirts to be able to use your coupon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each shirt originally costs $17.99.

There is a 20% discount on this specific brand of shirts.

$17.99 × 0.2 = $3.60 (discount per shirt)

Subtracting the discount from the original price:

$17.99 - $3.60 = $14.39 (price per shirt after discount)

To qualify for the $10 off coupon which requires a $40 minimum purchase:

$40 ÷ $14.39 ≈ 2.779, rounded up to 3 shirts

Therefore, you must buy 3 shirts.

3 shirts × $14.39 = $43.17, surpassing the $40 minimum needed to apply the $10 discount.

Leona [4166]

Complete question;

A booster club financed pizzas for an end-of-season celebration. The cost was $13 for each pepperoni pizza and $11 for each plain pizza. They purchased a

total of 18 pizzas for the event, totaling $212.

Organize the numbers into an equation that represents this scenario with x being the number of pepperoni pizzas and y being the number of plain pizzas purchased.

Answer:

13x + 11y = 212

Step-by-step explanation:

Two varieties of pizza were purchased: pepperoni and plain. The pepperoni variety cost $13 each while the plain one cost $11 each. In total, they bought 18 pizzas.

The overall expenditure on the pizzas was $212.

total number of pizzas = 18

total amount spent on pizzas = $212

x represents the number of pepperoni pizzas

y represents the number of plain pizzas

The cost of the pepperoni pizzas is derived by multiplying the number of pizzas by their individual price. The same calculation applies for the plain pizzas.

Therefore, by summing the costs of both pizza types, we arrive at the total price for the pizzas.

13x + 11y = 212
