You need to calculate 12% of 800.
To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number.
Change the percent into a decimal by dividing the percent by 100 (move the decimal point of the percent two places to the left.)
12% of 800 =
= 12% * 800
= 0.12 * 800
= 96
Answer: 96 students
Represent 'a number' by x
7 times x equals 9 more than 4 times x
7 times x=9+4 times x
7x=9+4x
subtract 4x from both sides
3x=9
divide 3
x=3
the number is 3
Answer:
square numbers are numbers raised up to the power of two in essence the number multiplied by it self
3. 572/1000 4. 9 23/1000 5. 45/100000 6. 9 875/1000
The number of matinee movies attended is 4.
The number of a evening show movies attended is 2.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
- Let x represent the number of matinee movies attended.
- Let y represent the number of evening show movies attended.
- Alejandro went to see a total of 6 movies.
Therefore, from the given data the equation can be framed as :
⇒ x + y = 6 ----------(1)
- The cost of a matinee is $7.
- The cost of an evening show is $12.
- Alejandro spent a total of $52.
Therefore, from the given data the equation can be framed as :
⇒ 7x + `12y = 52 ---------(2)
<u>To solve the equations for x and y values :</u>
Mulitply eq (1) and by 7 and subtract eq (2) from eq (1),
7x + 7y = 42
- <u>(7x + 12y = 52)</u>
<u> - 5y = - 10 </u>
⇒ y = 10/5
⇒ y = 2
The number of a evening show movies attended is 2.
Substitute y=2 in eq (1),
⇒ x+2 = 6
⇒ x = 6-2
⇒ x = 4
The number of matinee movies attended is 4.
