To solve this problem, we are going to set up an equation. However, first we need to convert the percentages to decimals by dividing by 100.

15% = 0.15 , 7.5% = 0.075

Now, we should substitute in our given information into our equation and let our unknown value be equal to the variable x.

0.15(500) = 0.075x

Then, we should simplify our equation by multiplying together the two factors on the left side of the equation.

75 = 0.075x

Finally, we should divide both sides of the equation by 0.075 to get the variable x alone.

x = 1000

Therefore, your answer is 1000.

Hope this helps!

Describe and correct any error a student may have made when solving the equation
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The student made an error during the distributive property in the second step where they multiplied 0.15 by -0.2 to equal -0.3 when it should have been -0.03.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.15(y-0.2)=2-0.5(1-y)\\0.15y-0.03=2-0.5+0.5y\\0.15y-0.03=1.5+0.5y\\100(0.15y-0.03)=100(1.5+0.5y)\\15y-3=150+50y\\15y-3-15y-150=150+50y-15y-150\\-153=35y\\-\frac{153}{35}=y
