In an apartment complex with 28 units, 19 of the renters keep a pet. What percentage does not keep a pet?

If 19 out of 28 renters keep a pet, there are 28-19 = 9 renters who don't keep a pet.

Whenever you have a subset of some set, and you want to know which percentage of the set the subset represents, you simply have to compute

\dfrac{\text{number of elements in the subset}}{\text{number of elements in the set}}\times 100

So, in your case, you're wondering what percentage of 28 does 9 represent. So, the formula becomes

\dfrac{9}{28}\times 100 = 0.32\overline{142857}\times 100 = 32.\overline{142857} \approx 32.14\%

What is a good comparison of the estimated sum and the actual sum of 7 9/12+2 11/12
earnstyle [38]
10 8/12 because you get an improper fraction when you add 9/12 and 11/12 (20/12) so you see how many times 12 goes into 20 which is only once. you see how many are left over from when you take 12 from 20. then you have you fraction which is 8/12. now you have to add the numbers which is 7+2=9 but 12 goes into 20 once so you add 1 to your number to make it 10. That's the answer, 10 8/12.

Three orders are placed at a pizza shop. two small pizzas, a liter of soda, and a salad cost $14; one small pizza, a liter of so
mojhsa [17]
To determine the cost of each item, we need to set up equations. From the problem statement, we have three unknowns so we need three equations. We set up equations as follows:

let x cost of small pizzas
     y cost of soda
     z cost of salad
 
two small pizzas, a liter of soda, and a salad cost $14
2x + y + z = 14

one small pizza, a liter of soda, and three salads cost $15

x + y + 3z = 15

three small pizzas, a liter of soda, and two salads cost $22
3x + y + 2z = 22

Solving for x, y and z, we will have:

x = $ 5
y = $ 1
z = $ 3

Graph -7x+5y=35. khan acadmy forms of linear equations question. pls show work (10 points)
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

● -7x + 5y = 35

Add 7x to both sides

● -7x +7x + 5y = 35+7x

● 5y = 7x + 35

Divide both sides by 5

● 5y/5 = (7x+35)/5

● y = 1.4x + 7
