So this is basically a ratio and the form I use to solve these is
Is. = %
Of. 100
So we're looking for 5% of the 350,000 which will be x
X. = 5
350000. 100
Cross multiply
100x=1750000
Divide by 100
X=17500
Answer:
-5x^2-2x
Step-by-step explanation:
When distributing, you multiply the term outside the brackets to all the terms in brackets.
If the term outside the bracket is negative, then when distributing/opening the brackets, the signs of the terms changes.
So in this prob. -x would multiply to both +5x and +2
-x*5x+-x*2
∴-5x^2-2x
Step-by-step explanation:
4 and 5 is one 20/25
5x+6y=18
5x=18-6y
x=(18-6y)/5
Use that in the other equation
18(18-6y)/5 - 15y = 36
64.8-21.6y - 15y = 36
28.8=36.6y
.7868=y
Now put that number in for y on the first equation
5x+6(.78) = 18
5x + 4.68 = 18
5x = 13.32
x = 2.66
and y = .78
