Answer: 500 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Let there are x people in the survey.
According to the question,
People who like football as their favorite sports = 42 % of x = 0.42 x
People who like baseball as their favorite sports = 33 % of x = 0.33 x
People who like soccer as their favorite sports = 25 % of x = 0.25 x
But, 210 people said football was their favorite sport.
⇒ 0.42 x = 210
⇒ 42 x = 21000
⇒ x = 500
Therefore, there are 500 people in the survey.
A unique decimal that I encounter regularly is "0.05". I encounter this almost every day, when I go to the store to buy something, the saleslady gives me $0.05 as change. When I go home and put some of my extra money in my piggy bank, I hold a $0.05 in my hand.
Your answer is 25% because a change from 16 to 20 represents a positive change (increase) of 25%
I think your equation is on the paper; it’s 2016 A.D + 544 then you’ll get your answer and which is 2560.
Error: They subtracted 9x from both sides when they should have subtracted 12. You can’t subtract unlike terms
Correct: x=-5/16
Subtract 12 from both sides to get -5 on the left and add 7x and 9x to get 16x. Divide both sides by 16 to isolate x.
