Answer:

276

Step-by-step explanation: In order to find the number, we will need to set it up in an equation. In total, there are 460 students while 60% of them have pets. Lets set that up.

460(60%)

In order to correctly do this, we will need to transfer 60% into a decimal, which is .6. Now we will rewrite it.

460(.6)

This now can be represented by the number 276.

Since we know that 276 is 60% of 460, The total number of students that have pets will be 276.

The value of p is -5

Simply use cross multiplication :

The process of multiplying numbers in the shape of a fraction is called cross multiplication. Cross multiplying, also known as cross multiplication, is the process of multiplying the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of the other fraction on the other side of an equal symbol. Cross multiplication is a method for comparing fractions.

Both fractions with like and unlike parts are multiplied across. When employing the cross-multiplication procedure, we multiply the denominators as well as the numerators when a fraction is dissimilar, or when the denominators of two fractions are not alike.

$14p-8=22+20p\\or, 14p-20p=22+8\\or, -6p=30\\or, p=-\frac{30}{6} \\or, p= -5$

Solve the following system of equations by substitution. Show all steps.

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Given system of equations:

$\begin{cases}f(x)=-x^2+2x+3\\g(x)=-2x+3\end{cases}$

To solve by substitution, equate the equations and solve for x:

$\begin{aligned}f(x) & = g(x)\\\implies -x^2+2x+3 & = -2x+3\\-x^2+4x & = 0\\x^2-4x & = 0\\x(x-4) & = 0\\\implies x & = 0\\\implies x-4 & = 0 \implies x=4\end{aligned}$
