100%/x%=12/15
<span>(100/x)*x=(12/15)*x       - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>100=0.8*x       - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (0.8) to get x
<span>100/0.8=x </span>
<span>125=x </span>
<span>x=125

so 125%</span>

three student share a townhouse their electric bill for october was 3.87 less than the september bill. the total of both bills i
leva [86]

Answer: 40.27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let their September bill be x

Therefore, the October bill will be = x - 3.87.

Therefore, the addition of both bills will be:

x + (x - 3.87) = 237.75

x + x - 3.87 = 237.75

2x - 3.87 = 237.75

2x = 237.75 + 3.87

2x = 241.62

x = 241.62/2

x = 120.81

Therefore, September bill was 120.81

Since the 3 students share the bull equally, the amount owed by each will be:

= 120.81 / 3

= 40.27

Each person owes 40.27

2. At the local park, there is an annual fair that
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

132 children and 88 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

let x represent the amount of kids and y represent the amount of adults.

since the problem says there was a total of 220 people at the fair an equation can be made

x+y=220

the problem tells that each childrens ticket was 1.5$ and each adult ticket was $4 and that a total of $550 was made that day, we can use the knowledge to make an equation:

1.5x + 4y = 550

using the equations we can make this systems of equations:

1.5x + 4y =550

x + y =220

solve the systems of equations by subracting y on both sides of th bottom equation:

x=220-y

since x is equivant to 220-y it can be substitued for x in the first equation to make this:

1.5(220-y)+4y =550

--solve for y--

y=88  - there were 88 adults

substute 88 for y in the second equation

x+88=220

--solve for x--

x=138 - there were 132 children

1) solve for w: 3w - 10 = 4w + 5<br> 2) solve for t:6 -2t &gt;18
Gre4nikov [31]
Problem # 1
 3w-10=4w+5
(3w-10) + (10-4w) = (4w+5) + (10-4w)
(3w-10) + (-4w+10) = (4w+5) + (-4w +10)
3w-10-4w+10 = 4w +5 -4w +10
3w-4w=15
-w=15
w= -15 (w is negative 15)

problem #2.
6-2t > 18
6-2t-6 > 18-6
-2t > 12 
(-1) (-2t) >  12 (-1)
2t > -12
next divide by 2
2t/2 > -12/2
 t >  -6     (t is greater then negative 6)
