Here are two slightly different ways to look at it. 
Both ways do exactly the same thing.

<u>Way #1:</u>
Divide  (the new number) by (the old number)

 349 / 320 = 1.090625

Change the quotient  1.090625  to percent.

To change any number into percent, multiply it by 100, or move the decimal point  2 places to the right.

   1.090625  ==>  109.06 %

The new number  (349)  is  109.06%  of the old number  (320).

But the old number was  100%  of itself.  So the new number
is  <em>9.06%  more</em> than the old number was.
================================

<u>Way #2:</u>
How much bigger is the new number ?

       (349 - 320) = 29 bigger

Divide the increase by the old number:

       29 / 320 = 0.090625

Change the quotient to a percent.

     0.090625 = 9.06%

The <em>increase</em> is<em>  9.06%</em>  of the old number.

What value for the constant, h, in the equation shown below will result in an infinite number of solutions?
natta225 [31]

Using a system of equations, it is found that a value of h = 4 will result in an infinite number of solutions.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

If two equations are equal, the system has infinite solutions.

In this problem, the equations are:

4x - 16 = h(x - 4).

Then:

4(x - 4) = h(x - 4).

h = 4.
