Answer:

-8/7 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

-2         x+1

----- = -----------

12         x+2

Using cross products

-2 (x+2) = 12 (x+1)

Distribute

-2x -4 = 12x+12

Add 2x to each side

-2x+2x -4 = 12x+2x+12

-4 = 14x +12

Subtract 12 from each side

-4-12 = 14x

-16 = 14x

Divide each side by 14

-16/14 =14x/14

-8/7 =x

A medication states that the odds of having an allergic reaction are 1 in 50. What is that probability states as a percent?
Fittoniya [83]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u><em>As a percent, the odds of having an allergic reaction would be 2%.</em></u>

This is because 1 in 50 of a chance, is equal to 1/50, and to make this a percent out of 100, just multiply both parts of the fraction by 2.

None of the choices equal 1/50, so let's just make it a percentage anyway.

1/50 ---> 0.02

0.02 ---> 2%

<em>The answer is 2%, or 1/50 as a fraction.</em>
