Yes it is 0.12 for sure..
Answer fast? What?
x + 2y = 17...Equation A
8x + 3y = 45...Equation B
Solve A for x.
x = 17 - 2y
Plug this into B to solve for y.
8(17 - 2y) + 3y = 45
136 - 16y + 3y = 45
136 - 13y = 45
-13y = 45 - 136
-13y = -91
y = -91/-13
y = 91/13
y = 7
To find y, plug x = 7 into either equation to find x.
I will use Equation A.
x + 2y = 17
x + 2(7) = 17
x + 14 = 17
x = 17 - 14
x = 3
Answer: x = 3, y = 7
So you have to find something that multiples to six but also somehow either subtracts or adds to five. So I would pick 2 and 3 because two plus three is five. Then you would write out your equation
X2+2x+5x+6
This may not be the way your teacher taught however it is much easier for me to do it this way.
Answer:
#1.---60% #2.---$12.60 per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
#1. Since It was originally $50 you have 50% already, so what I did was I multiplied 50 by 2. this got me 100 which is a simpler way to calculate by. 50 to 80 dollars is a $30 change, so multiply that by 2 and you get 60. 60 will be your percent of change. You can double check this by multiplying 50 by .60, the answer will be 30 and 50+30=80
#2 Since Tyler starts off with $12 per hour with a 5% increase you will need to multiply 12*.05 this will get you the answer of 0.6 you then need to add $12, since that was his original payment. 12+0.6=12.60, so his final payment would by $12.60 per hour
