Answer:
Good
Step-by-step explanation:
How has been your day?
Why not? Because every math system you've ever worked with has obeyed these properties! You have never dealt with a system where a×b did not in fact equal b×a, for instance, or where (a×b)×c did not equal a×(b×c). Which is why the properties probably seem somewhat pointless to you. Don't worry about their "relevance" for now; just make sure you can keep the properties straight so you can pass the next test. The lesson below explains how I kept track of the properties.
Answer:
$200
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the amount of Christmas money he had at the beginning.
He put 65% of X in the bank. This is 0.65x
He has $70 left which is equal to 0.35x
We need to write an equation to find the value of x.
70 = 0.35x
Divide by 0.35 to find the value of x.
70/0.35 = 0.35x/0.35
200 = x
He received $200 for Christmas.
