Answer:

A)  p = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

3(p - 5) = 5p -27

<u />

Apply the <u>Distributive Property of Multiplication over subtraction law</u>:

⇒ 3 · p - 3 · 5 = 5p - 27

⇒ 3p - 15 = 5p - 27

Add 27 to both sides:

⇒ 3p - 15 + 27 = 5p - 27 + 27

⇒ 3p + 12 = 5p

Subtract 3p from both sides:

⇒ 3p - 3p + 12 = 5p - 3p

⇒ 12 = 2p

⇒ 2p = 12

Divide both sides by 2:

⇒ 2p ÷ 2 = 12 ÷ 2

⇒ p = 6

Given that G=ab find the percentage increase in G when both a and b<br> increase by 10%
monitta

The percentage change in G is 21 %

<h3>What is Percentage change ?</h3>

Percentage change is defined as the increase or decrease in the value as compared to the original value multiplied by 100.

It is given that

G = ab

when a is increased by 10% the new a will be = 1.1 a

When b is increased by 10% the new b will be 1.1 b

So,

G' = 1.1a *1.1 b

G' = 1.21 ab

G' = 1.21

(G' - G)*100/G = (1.21-1)*100/1

The percentage change is 21 %

Can a -150/10 be classified as both a rational number and a integer
irakobra [83]
Yes! This is because -150/10 can be simplified to be -15, which is a rational number.

The word “rational” sounds like another math word you’ve heard of before. Do you know what it is?

Well, it’s “ratio”!! Ratios can be seen in the forms x:y and x/y.


ANY RATIONAL NUMBER HAS THE ABILITY TO BE WRITTEN AS A RATIO!! This will completely exclude numbers with super long decimal points (ex: 1.2345678809928374737272828...)

This number also meets the requirements of being an integer. An integer is any whole number (this excludes decimals and fractions)

I know it’s written as a fraction. However, the fraction could be simplified, making it -15, which means this is both a rational number and an integer!!

How do you graph? <br> y=−4/3x+8y
trasher [3.6K]

How do we graph anything? Make a table of values for x and y and then plot each point. After plotting each point on the xy-plane, connect each point with a straight line or curve (depending on the function).


In this case, we must first isolate y.


y = (-4/3)x + 8y


y - 8y = (-4/3)x


-7y = (-4/3)x


y = (-4/3)x ÷ (-7)


y = (4/21)x


Now follow the steps above.
