Answer:

30 games

Step-by-step explanation:

As a reduced fraction 85% is equal to 85/100 = 17/20. Therefore, the number of games Teddy played yesterday must have been a multiple of 20. Suppose Teddy played 20m games, so he won 17m games.

Also, suppose Teddy played n games today. As a reduced fraction, 94% is equal to 94/100 = 47/50. Since Teddy won every game he played today, we have

(17m + n)/(20m + n) = 47/50

Cross-multiplying, we get 850m + 50n = 940m + 47n. Then 3n = 90m, so n = 30m. Therefore, the minimum number of games that Teddy played today is 30.

The equation we use here is:
(0.85)x +(1.00)y = (0.94)(x + y)
x is for the number of games he played on first day, y is the games on second day. The coefficients are the decimal form of percentages.

Simplify:
0.85x + y = 0.94x + 0.94y \\ \\ 0.06y = 0.09x \\ \\ \frac{6y}{100} = \frac{9x}{100} \\ \\ 6y = 9x \\ \\ 2y = 3x

To find x we need to use the ratio. We have 85/100 as the first day's ratio and because the games needs to be whole, we can simplify this as 17/20. So in first day, he played at least 20 games and won 17 of them.

When we plug the 20 into the equation as x:
2y = 3 \times 20 \\ \\ 2y = 60 \\ \\ y = 30
So he needs to play at least 30 games in order to get his score to 94%.

Complete the set of ordered pairs for the relation.
neonofarm [45]

The set of ordered pairs is:

{(-2, 2), (-1, 0), (0, 2), (1, 4), (2, 6)}

<h3>How to complete the set of ordered pairs?</h3>

Here we have the relation:

y = 2*|x + 1|

And the domain is x ∈ { -2, -1, 0, 1, 2}

Evaluating in the values of the domain, we get:

if x = -2.

y = 2*|-2 + 1| = 2

Then we have the ordered pair (-2, 2)

if x = -1

y = 2*|-1 + 1| = 0

Then we have the ordered pair (-1, 0)

if x = 0

y = 2*|0 + 1| = 2

Then we have the ordered pair (0, 2)

if x = 1

y = 2*|1 + 1| = 4

Then we have the ordered pair (1, 4)

if x = 2

y = 2*|2 + 1| = 6

Then we have the ordered pair (2, 6)

The set of ordered pairs is:

{(-2, 2), (-1, 0), (0, 2), (1, 4), (2, 6)}

The answer and how to do it.
Kruka [31]

let x = orginal price of the shorts

$21 = x(100%-20%) * 1.05

$21 = x(80%) * 1.05

$21 = 0.8x * 1.05

Subtract 1.05 from both sides

$19.95 = 0.8x

Divide 0.8 from both sides

$24.9375 = x

So the orginal price of the shorts are about $24.94
