Answer:

It will take 10 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the number of days it will take for Bernardo to clear the debt he owes his father.

We proceed as follows;

Let the number of days be x

So after x days, there will be an interest of x * 1 = $90

So the amount of money he owes his father after x days will be $(90 + x)

After x days, the amount he would have earned from mowing lawns will be x * 20 = $20x

He intend using half of this to clear the loan

Half of this is 20x/2 = $10x

We know that this amount is enough to clear the loan, so we equate this value to the amount he wants to use to clear the loan

So;

90 + x = 10x

90 = 10x - x

9x = 90

x = 90/9

x = 10

en una fiesta hay 16 personas de las cuales el 25% son mujeres, luego llegan mas mujeres a la fiesta, de tal manera que ahora lo
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

<u>English (Ingles):</u>
10 Women come to the party.

<u>Spanish (Espanol):</u>

10 Las mujeres vienen a la fiesta.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>English (Ingles):</u>

We know that there are 16 people there at the start. 25% of those people are women. We can work out by subtracting 100 by 25 that 75% of the p-eople there are men. We need to do 25% of 16 so we can work out how many men and women there are there.

So we find 10% of 16 which is 1.6 then we take off 5% of 1.6 which is 0.08. We then double 1.6 to get 20% which gives us 3.2. We now add on the 5% to make it 25% which gives us 4.

This means 25% of 16 is 4.

This tells us that there are 4 women at the party and 12 men as 16 - 4 = 12.

It now says that more women arrive which makes the percentage for men go down to 60%. We now need to add 5% on to the 25% of women there are which will tell us how many more women there are now and it will let us work out how many women and men there are in total now.

As we can't do this without it giving us 4.8, we know that 25% of people is 4 women which means 50% of people would be 8 women and we make an estimate of how many women have joined which gives us 6 people which means the total amount of women at the party is 10.

<u>Spanish (Espanol):</u>

<u />

Sabemos que hay 16 personas allí al principio. El 25% de esas personas son mujeres. Podemos calcular restando 100 por 25 que el 75% de las personas son hombres. Necesitamos hacer el 25% de 16 para poder calcular cuántos hombres y mujeres hay allí.

Así que encontramos el 10 % de 16, que es 1,6, luego quitamos el 5 % de 1,6, que es 0,08. Luego duplicamos 1,6 para obtener el 20%, lo que nos da 3,2. Ahora sumamos el 5% para convertirlo en 25%, lo que nos da 4.

Esto significa que el 25% de 16 es 4.

Esto nos dice que hay 4 mujeres en la fiesta y 12 hombres como 16 - 4 = 12.

Ahora dice que llegan más mujeres lo que hace que el porcentaje de hombres baje al 60%. Ahora necesitamos agregar un 5% al ​​25% de mujeres que hay, lo que nos dirá cuántas mujeres más hay ahora y nos permitirá calcular cuántas mujeres y hombres hay en total ahora.

Como no podemos hacer esto sin que nos dé 4.8, sabemos que el 25% de las personas son 4 mujeres, lo que significa que el 50% de las personas serían 8 mujeres y hacemos una estimación de cuántas mujeres se han unido, lo que nos da 6 personas que significa que la cantidad total de mujeres en la fiesta es 10.
