How old am i if 500 reduced by 4 times my age is 184

Mathematics

Lunna [17]3 years ago

Answer:

79 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say your age is x.

The problem says "500 reduced by 4 times my age is 184", so we convert this to math:

- "4 times my age" ⇒ 4 * x = 4x

- "500 reduced by" ⇒ 500 - (something)

- "500 reduced by 4 times my age" ⇒ 500 - 4x

- "is 184" ⇒ = 184

- "500 reduced by 4 times my age is 184" ⇒ 500 - 4x = 184

Now, we simply solve for x:

500 - 4x = 184

4x = 500 - 184 = 316

x = 79

Thus, you are 79 years old.

Hope this helps!

Micah is preparing for a piano recital. He practices for 50 minutes on Monday and 90 minutes on Wensday
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

She increased 80% the practise time

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, the following is missing:

<em>by how much did she increase the time she practised each day? </em>

From Monday to Wednesday she increased 90 - 50 = 40 minutes  the practise time.

To compute the increment as a percentage use: increment/reference *100

In this case, that is: 40/50*100 = 80%, where 50 minutes is taken as a reference.
