Find the percentage of the household that didn't receive basic cable
100% - 88% = 12%
<em>This is the percentage of the household that didn't receive basic cable by the household owned TV set.</em>

Now find the number with the percentage
without basic cable = 12% × 114.9 million
without basic cable = 12/100 × 114,900,000
without basic cable = 13,788,000

<em>The number of households that didn't receive basic cable is 13,788,000 or 13,788 million</em>

The sum of the ages of the father and son is 44 years .After 8 years the age of the father will be twice the age of the son . Fi
Vadim26 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of father = x years

and the present age of son = y years

according to the first condition

x + y =44 ........(i)

according to the second condition

x+8 = 2(y+8)

or x+ 8 = 2y + 16

or x- 2y = 8 ............(ii)

solve the equation (i) & (ii) we get

x + y =44

x- 2y = 8

••••••••••••••••••••••••

3y = 36

or y = 12

put the value of y in equation (i), we get

x + 12 =44

or x = 32

so the present age of father = x =32 years

and the present age of son = y = 12 years.
