Answer:

The lower the age of Benny and Jenny, the% between the age of both, the more it decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the exact percentage, the age of one of the two is necessary. I demonstrate it with several examples.

Let B be Benny's age

Let J be Jenny's age

We are told that Benny's age is 200% Jenny's age, we know that 200% is 2, therefore:

B / J = 2

Now if B = 2 and J = 1

2/1 = 2

After 4 years:

B + 4 / J + 4 = (2 + 4) / (1 + 4) = 1.2, i.e. 120%

Another example, if B = 4 and J = 2

4/2 = 2

After 4 years:

B + 4 / J + 4 = (4 + 4) / (2 + 4) = 1.33, that is 133%

Another example, if B = 6 and J = 3

6/3 = 2

After 4 years:

B + 4 / J + 4 = (6 + 4) / (3 + 4) = 1.43, that is 143%

The conclusion is that the lower the age of Benny and Jenny, the% between the age of both, the more it decreases.

3x20=3x(10+_) what is the answer?
Assoli18 [71]
The obvious answer to this would be 10.

The most simple way to do it would be taking out 3 x from each side of the equation and do 20 = 10 + _

Another way would be to actually solve it.

Let us put into the situation that the unknown variable would be y. The equation then would look like this.

3 x 20 = 3 x (10 + y)

Then solve

3 x 20 = 3 x (10 + y)
--------    ---------------
   3                  3
20 = 10 + y
20 - 10 = y
10 = y

10 would be the answer

Find the discount rate
kifflom [539]

we'd do the same as before on this one as well.

if we take 27.99 to be the 100%, what is 12 off of it in percentage?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 27.99&100\\ 12&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{27.99}{12}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 27.99x=1200 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{1200}{27.99}\implies x\approx 42.87
