Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5x - 1 = 9
Add 1 to both sides
2/5x = 10
Multiply by 5 on both sides
2x = 50
Divide by 2 on both sides
x = 25
Check the answer:
Plug in 25 for x
2/5(25) - 1 = 9
10 - 1 = 9
9 = 9
The answer is correct.
Step 1: We make the assumption that 498 is 100% since it is our output value.
Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$x.
Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=498$100%=498.
Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=4$x%=4.
Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:
$100\%=498(1)$100%=498(1).
$x\%=4(2)$x%=4(2).
Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS
(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have
$\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{498}{4}$
100%
x%=
498
4
Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields
$\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{4}{498}$
x%
100%=
4
498
$\Rightarrow x=0.8\%$⇒x=0.8%
Therefore, $4$4 is $0.8\%$0.8% of $498$498.
X^2 + 3x - 6
This is because x^2 and 3x have nothing they can combine with, leaving them as their own number. 1 + - 6 will give you -5 as adding to a negative only reduces not adds entirely.
Hope this helps!
