1. **Problem:** Emma is buying $7.50 worth of candy with a 30% discount. How much will she pay after the discount?
2. **Formula:** The price after discount is calculated by:
$$\text{Price after discount} = \text{Original price} \times (1 - \text{Discount rate})$$
3. **Calculation:**
$$\text{Price after discount} = 7.50 \times (1 - 0.30)$$
$$= 7.50 \times 0.70$$
$$= 5.25$$
4. **Explanation:** Emma will pay $5.25 after the 30% discount.
5. **Problem:** Nancy purchased bed sheets for $36 after a 25% discount. What was the original price?
6. **Formula:** The sale price is:
$$\text{Sale price} = \text{Original price} \times (1 - \text{Discount rate})$$
Rearranged to find original price:
$$\text{Original price} = \frac{\text{Sale price}}{1 - \text{Discount rate}}$$
7. **Calculation:**
$$\text{Original price} = \frac{36}{1 - 0.25} = \frac{36}{0.75}$$
$$= \frac{\cancel{36}}{\cancel{0.75}} \times \frac{4}{4} = \frac{36 \times 4}{3} = \frac{144}{3} = 48$$
8. **Explanation:** The original price of the bed sheets was $48.
9. **Problem:** The table shows Milkshakes and Cost with missing values. Given:
Milkshakes: 1, 2, 3, 4
Cost: 0.25, 0.50, ?, 0.75, ?, 1.00
10. **Observation:** The cost increases by $0.25 per milkshake.
11. **Calculation:**
Cost for 3 milkshakes = $0.25 \times 3 = 0.75$
Cost for 4 milkshakes = $0.25 \times 4 = 1.00$
12. **Explanation:** The missing costs are $0.75 for 3 milkshakes and $1.00 for 4 milkshakes.
**Final answers:**
- Emma pays $5.25 after discount.
- Original price of bed sheets is $48.
- Missing costs are $0.75 and $1.00 for 3 and 4 milkshakes respectively.
