Answer:
56.25%
Step-by-step explanation:
800 - 350 = 450
1% of 800 = 8 (800 divided by 100)
450 divided by 8 = 56.25
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
None of these choices is correct.
3y = 8 is an equation, not an expression. It states that "y is 8 divided by 3," which again is an equation.
What is the question now??
Answer: The solution is the ordered pair (1/2, -3/4) so x = 1/2 and y = -3/4 pair up together. The two lines, when graphed, cross at this location.
note: 1/2 = 0.5 and -3/4 = -0.75; so the intersection point can be written as (0.5, -0.75)
===================================================
Explanation:
The second equation has y isolated. We can replace the y in the first equation with the expression 1/2x - 1
3x + 2y = 0
3x + 2( y ) = 0
3x + 2( 1/2x - 1) = 0 ... y is replaced with 1/2x-1
3x + 2(1/2x) + 2(-1) = 0 .... distribute
3x + x - 2 = 0 .... note how 2 times 1/2 is 1
4x - 2 = 0
4x = 2
x = 2/4
x = 1/2
Use this x value to find the y value it pairs with
y = (1/2)*x - 1
y = (1/2)*(1/2) - 1 ... replace x with 1/2
y = 1/4 - 1
y = 1/4 - 4/4
y = (1-4)/4
y = -3/4
Divide the two numbers. The equation is 420/15=28. So Lee would get 28 miles per gallon of gasoline. I hope this helps!
