Use cross multiplication. 42 inches is your 100%. your fraction would be 42/100
then, to find by what percent it has increased, since 47 is your new height, and you are trying to find the percentage for that, the fraction will be 47/X.

42          47 
-----       -----
100         X

(100 * 47) / 42 = X

100 multiplied by 47, then divided by 42, the result is X

your answer should be 111%. Subtract 100 from 111, to get the increased percent.

Answer: 11%

I did this last year, so it may be a little rusty. If im wrong, hopefully someone will correct me, if not, im pretty sure this looks rights. Your methods may also be different. i use cross mulitplication

An online store sells only two types of bandanas: cotton bandanas and silk bandanas. Cotton bandanas cost $7 each, and silk band
qwelly [4]

Given :

An online store sells only two types of bandanas: cotton bandanas and silk bandanas. Cotton bandanas cost $7 each, and silk bandanas cost $11 each.

Mrs. Tran spent a total of $93 on bandanas at this store.

To Find :

How many cotton bandanas did Mrs. Tran buy.

Solution :

Let, number of cotton and silk bandanas buys are x and y respectively.

So, 7x + 11y = 93

x = (93 - 11y)/ 7

Putting y = 1 , x = 82/7 ( not possible since x can only be positive integer )

Putting y = 4 , x = 7

Therefore, Mrs . Tran will buy 7 cotton bandanas.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Simplify −2xy + 3x − 2xy + 3x <br><br> A. 4xy +6x B. 2xy C. −4xy + 6x D. 4xy − 6x
marysya [2.9K]
First you must combine like terms, the two terms I this expression are x, and xy. So by adding -2xy to -2xy you get -4xy. Next you must add 3x to 3x. This gives you the simplified expression -4xy+6x. Hope this helps
