Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x/regular price=y
1-y=discountx100
So, say you get a pair of shoes that are normally $100 and you pay 75. 75/100=.75. 1-.75=.25x100=25. This means you got a 25% discount.
1, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6, each x is one of each number below
Answer:
The high school graduating class changed by approximately 23%
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
The high school graduating class of 2010 was 260 people
Five years later the high school graduating class was 320 people.
we know that
260 people represent the 100%
so
The difference is (320-260)=60 people
using proportion
Find out what percentage represent 60 people
Let
x ----> the percentage that represent 60 people

therefore
The high school graduating class changed by approximately 23%
Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the remaining angles add up to 90°, because the right angle (triangles have 180° total.)
2x + 15 + x = 90 | Given
3x + 15 = 90 | Combine x
3x = 75 | Subtract 15
x = 25
