First lets start by making the denominators the same. I multiplied the 4 by 5 and 10 by 2.
-25/20 = x -14/20
Add 14/20 on both sides (do the opposite to cancel out and whatever you do to one side you need to do to the other.
You should get -11/20 = x
3X + 5X = 136
8X = 136
X = 17
Numbers are 51 and 85
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
answer is a but please mark me brainliest if I m correct
Let x be the original amount.
Increasing x by 24% means to add 24% of x to the original amount x.
x + 24% of x = x + .24x = 1x + .24x = 1.24x.
Therefore, to increase a given amount by 24% then multiply the original amount by a single factor of 1.24 .
