No because 3 x 4 = 12 and 8 x 4 ≠ 24
Answer:
About 71% of the books were mystery books
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the percentage of something you simply divide the amounts. 17 of the 24 books were mystery so to find the percentage of mystery books you do 17 divided by 24
17/24= 0.70833333333
and round it to 71
Answer:
x = -8
y = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -2x - 22
y = x + 2
x + 2 = -2x - 22
x + 2x = -22 - 2
3x = -24
x = -24 : 3
x= -8
y = -8 + 2
y = -6
Ok, so first you solve whatever is in the parentheses.
(28 • 5-5 • 190)-2•228
28• 5 = 140
Then 5 •190 = 950
Then multiply 950 • 140 = 133,000
Then it should look like this:
133,000-2•228
Multiply 2 • 228 = 456
Then subtract 456 from 133,000.
The answer should come out to 132,544.
Use proportions.
214/236=x/100(100 because it's a percentage.
cross multiply:
23600=214x
solve for x:
x= 11.3(rounded)
11.3% increase
