4.58% is the answer. You need to add the $12.10 to $252 to get the total. 252x100%=2500÷264.10 then subtract the answer from 100.
Answer:
Any value except -3.44 will make the equation equal to 28.1
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told to multiply the quotient of the fraction by 28.1 to make 28.1. So, it is obvious that the fraction has to simplified to a one. This is possible with any number as whatever the value of x, the numerator and denominator will be equal. But, in the case of -3.44, it will make 5e fraction 0/0, which is undefined and never equal to 1.
I hope this helps
Let's set it up like this:

Multiply both sides by



We are then going to use the distributive property. Since we also know that the opposite of an number that is squared is the square root, we can also apply that. We would be left with something like this:

The variable

can be both positive or negative.
