To find a percentage of a product, multiply by the decimal form of that percentage (20%=0.20;50%=0.50). Taking $140 and multiplying by 0.35 gives us 49, which we subtract from the original total and get $91. So, the percentage decrease is 35%.

Can someone help me with these two questions step by step plz
vodomira [7]

Answer:

1) x= 20

2) x= 75

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first problem, we see vertical angles. This means that both angles equal each other: 50= 2x+10

Step 1- Subtract 10 to both sides.

50= 2x+10

-10         -10

40= 2x

Step 2- Divide both sides by 2.

<u>40</u>= <u>2x</u>

2     2

x= 20

In the next problem we see a straight line and an intersecting point. Now, both of these angles sum up to 180 degrees. So the equation would be:

x-10+2x-35= 180

Step 1- Add common variables.

(x+2x)+(-10-35)= 180

3x-45= 180

Step 2- Add 45 to both sides.

3x-45= 180

   +45  +45

3x= 225

Step 3- Divide both sides by 3.

<u>3x</u>= <u>225</u>

3      3

x= 75

Input the value of x into the equations.

75-10= 65

2(75)-35= 115

Hope this helps!

John is packing cookies for Key club's bake sale. He has 48 chocolate chips cookies and 56 peanut butter cookies. What is the ma
Elena L [17]

The maximum number of bags is an illustration of the greatest common factor

The maximum number of bags John can make is 8

The given parameters are:

Chocolate=48

Peanut=56

Start by expressing 48 and 56 as a product of their factors.

Chocolate = 1 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3

Peanut = 1 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 7

The product of the common factors between the above products is:

Factors = 1 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2

Multiply

Factors = 8

The above represents the greatest common factor of 48 and 56.

Hence, the maximum number of bags John can make is 8
