Answer:
We have, 15% × x = 85
or,
15
100
× x = 85
Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 15,
we have x = 85 ×
100
15
x = 566.67
I think you meant the two <em>segments</em><em> </em>are identical, if so then:
The answer is 0.008a^3 because you would do 0.2 to the power of 3
While it's pretty obvious to most of us that
-13x=90-2y
-6x=48-2y
is a system of linear equations, it'd be well to include that info plus the instructions "solve this system of linear equations."
Subtract the 2nd equation from the first:
-13x=90-2y
+6x=-48+2y
-----------------------
-7x = 42. Then x = -42/7, or x = 6.
Now subst. 6 for x in either one of the given equations. Suppose we use the 2nd equation:
-6x=48-2y
Then -6(6)=48-2y, or -36 = 48 - 2y, or 2y = 48+ 36 = 84. Then y = 42.
The solution is (6, 42).
Well the way I see it is he started with 4 villager so I would see the equation to be
1.13x times 17+4 would equal the amount of villagers he could have which would be 23.21 as for the equation it would be 1.13x times 17 plus four equals the number of villagers total
