85% of what number equals 17

Mathematics
1 answer:
IrinaK [193]4 years ago
8 0
Percent means parts out of 100
85%=85/100=0.85
'of' means multiply

therefor
85% of x equals 17 means
0.85 times x=17
divide both sides by 0.85
x=20



the number is 20

Which of these is a simplified form of the equation 8y + 4 = 6 + 2y + 1y?
larisa86 [58]
The first one would be the right one!
  
you just take all the y one side and the numbers on one side 
 so 8y+4= 6+3y

now 8y-3y= 6-4

therefore 5y = 2

Answer:

  y +1 = -3(x -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given point is (3, -1), and the given slope is -3. The form suggests you want the point-slope form of the equation for the line:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

Using the given values, the equation is ...

  y -(-1) = -3(x -3)

  y +1 = -3(x -3)

Find the missing angles​
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

the missing angles are 47,° 77,° 56°

Step-by-step explanation:

(133)+(x+13)= 180° (angles on a straight line)

133+x+13= 180°

146+x= 180°

X= 180-146

X= 34°

FOR ANGLE A

2X+9= 2(34)+9= 68+9= 77°

FOR ANGLE C

X+13= 34+13= 47°

FOR ANGLE B

47+77+Y= 180 (SUM OF ANGLES IN A TRIANGLE)

124+Y= 180

Y= 180-124= 56°

Y= 56°

the missing angles are 47,° 77,° 56°
