Okay so to get this answer u have too Take 17 and subtract 2 This equals 15, So the answer would be 15, This is how I get my answers at least
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1a. 25/50 =x/100
25*100= 2500/50= 50
A= 50%
1b. 35/40 = x/100
35*100= 3500/40= 87.5
A=87.5%
2a. 15/20= x/100
20*5= 100; 15*5= 75
A=75%
2b. 25/70= x/100
25*100= 2500/70= 35.71
A=35.71
3a. 15/80= x/100
15*100= 1500/80=18.75
A=18.75%
3b. 30/60= x/100
30/60= 1/2;1/2=0.5;0.5= 50%
A=50%
4a. 70/80 =x/100
70*100=7000/80 =87.5
A=87.5
4b.30/60 = 50% ( same as question #3b)
1: Solve for either x or y in one of the equations. So x + y = -1 is y = -x -1
2: substitute the new equation in the opposite equation. So x - (-x - 1) = 7
3: distribute the negative. X + x + 1 = 7
4: combine like terms. 2x + 1 = 7
5: solve for x. Subtract 1 on both sides. 2x = 6
6: divide by 2 to get x by itself. X = 3
7: plug the new value of x into one of the ORIGINAL equations. 3 + y = -1
8: solve for y. Subtract 3 on both sides.
Y = -4
9: the solution is written as (x,y) so the solution would be (3, -4)
30 divided by 12 will give you the percentage 40% , or c
