Elimination:
-4x+y=6
-5x-y=21 ...and then u add them together so its;
(the y cancelled out so its 0) x =27
plug in the 27 to any x...
-4(27) + y = 6
-108+y=6
add -108 on both sides so its...
y= -102
(27, -102)
Hope this helped :)
<span>1. Find the difference
2. Divide the difference by the original number it went up from.

450-375 = 75
75/375 = 0.2
You got a 20% raise.
Proof:
375*.2 = 75
375+75 = 450
Answer:
Not that I'm a chemistry expert but mathematically,The total weight of the bar is directly proportional to the known weight of the bar and the given percentage. I worked it out and found that the the total weight of the bar is 30 ounces. This is how I did it
Step-by-step explanation:
80:24
100:n
80(n)=100×24
A little equation and after it's solve the variable (n) will be equal to 30
The unit is added after calculations so that's how the answer is <em><u>3</u></em><em><u>0</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>oun</u></em><em><u>ces</u></em>
I've been waiting for someone to ask this question. It's one of my favorite questions to answer.
percent means out of 100 so 1% = 1/100 and 40%=40/100 or 1/25
so for percent of a number, 'of' means multiply so 40% of 500= 40/100 times 500 or 20000/100 or 200
if you multiply a fraction by its recipricol (the number fliped upside down) the you will get 1 so if you multiply 1/2 by 2/1 then you will get 1
thus
percent is out of 100 so 1%=1/100 25%=25/100
if you represent 45 out of something as 45/x then you multiply it by the reciprocal of the fraction that is supposed to be equal (1/2 =2/4) then you will get 1
so 45/x times reciprocal of 100/25 then you will get 1/1 or 4500/25x
so you divide to find x and get 180
so 45 is 25% of 180
The following is extra
as stated above 'of' can be taken as multiply so
45 is 25% of 180 can be rewriten as
45=25/100 times 180
but we don't know that 180 is the answer so we replace it with x then solve for x
