Now, to answer this question, we must get x on its own at either side. x + 5 is on the left hand side, so to get X in its own, we must get rid of the 5. To eliminate the 5 but keep the equation balanced, we can take 5 from both sides of the equation. So x+5-5 = -8-5. This goes to X = -13, because 5-5 is 0 and -8-5 is -13.

Therefore, x is negative.

El numero de libros vendidos en una tienda aumentó aproximadamente de 6000 a 9000 durante varios meses cual porcientorepresenta
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the percentage of increase, what we must do divide the two quantities, in this way we will be able to know how bigger they are from each other. So:

9000/6000 = 1.5

Now, we subtract those from 1, which would be 100%

1.5 - 1 = 0.5

therefore the increase was 50%

A baseball team won 20 games and lost 10 games. What percent of the games did the team win?
wel

Answer:

66%

Step-by-step explanation:

- First, add 20 + 10 = 30. This will give you the total amount of games.

- Now, make this into a fraction for won games. This should be 20/30.

- Next, take 20/30 and simplify it. You should get 2/3 as a fraction.

- Now, take 2 and divide by 3. (2/3) You should get .66 repeating. This is equal to 66%.

- Therefore 66% is the answer.

- Hope this helps! If you need a further explanation please let me know.
