Literal equations, simply put, are equations containing two or more variables. Your goal is to solve for just one variable with respect to others. If you know how to solve regular equations, then I guarantee you that solving literal equations will be a breeze.
The "heart" of literal equation is to isolate or keep by itself a certain variable on one side of the equation (either left or right) and the rest on the opposite side.
So, you know that any number with 100 as the denominator will be a fraction. All you have to do is change the 10 you have now to 100. To do that, you have to multiply BOTH numerator and denominator (top and bottom) by 10. That results in 70/100, which is equal to 70%.
The equivalent percent for 7/10 is 70%.
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
1 Add 44 to both sides.
2x=8+42x=8+4
2 Simplify 8+48+4 to 1212.
2x=122x=12
3 Divide both sides by 22.
x=\frac{12}{2}x=
2
12
4 Simplify \frac{12}{2}
2
12
to 66.
x=6x=6

<u>System of Equations</u>
Let's call:
x = number of nickels in the student's pocket
y = number of dimes in the student's pocket
Each nickel has a value of $0.05, so x nickels have a value of 0.05x
Each dime has a value of $0.10, so y dimes have a value of 0.10y
The student has a total of 10 coins, thus:
The total value of the coins is $0.85, thus
The system of linear equations that represents this scenario is:
