20%
A change from 65 to 78 represents a positive change (increase) of 20%
Use the formula found below to find the percent change by replacing the given values:
Percent change = [(New - Old ) / |Old|] x 100%
Well first we have to add 7/12 and 3/4 together which is 7/12+3/4=4/3. Now we have to reduce that to simplest form. Which would be 1 1/3 is 7/12+3/4 in simplest form!
Answer:
Joe is 14.
Martha is 28.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the variables and information from the question to make equations.
If Joe's age is half Martha's:
(1/2)m = j OR 2j = m
If their ages combined is 42:
m + j = 42
We can substitute the equation m=2j into equation m + j = 42, replacing "m".
m + j = 42 Substitute m for 2j
2j + j = 42 Combine like terms, terms with same varables
3j = 42 Divide both sides by 3 to isolate j
j = 14 Joe's age
Since j = 14, we can substitute it into equation m=2j to find "m".
m = 2j Substitute j for 14
m = 2(14) Simplify
m = 28 Martha's age
Therefore Joe is 14 and Martha is 28.
Parallel lines are both vertical and they don’t meet.
