A store manager is marking down chess boards from $25 to $14. What percentage is the discount?

Mathematics

Remember: when calculating percent it will always be over 100. With the given numbers 14 is your part out of the total (25). It should be written as part/whole.

As previously said, the percent is always over 100. (x/100)

In this problem you are given the part (14) and the whole (25). So it would be 14/25. The percent in this problem would be x/100. Now to find percent with the given part/whole, you would multiply 14 with 100. Then simply divide by 25.

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

its 38 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

d₂ = distance covered each day in the next 5 days From the question, Given: d₁ = 3 miles = 7/2 miles T = 5 Days d₂ = 4 miles = 17/4 miles Substitute these values into equation 1 D = [ (7/2)×5]+ [ (17/4)×5] D = 17.5+21.25 D = 38.75 miles

Nick was surveying his field and saw some cows and ducks. Nick counted a total of 80 heads and
Natali [406]

Answers:

  • Total equation:  x+y = 80
  • Legs equation:  2x+4y = 248
  • How many ducks? 36
  • How many cows? 44

====================================================

Further explanation:

  • x = number of ducks
  • y = number of cows

x+y = 80 is the total equation (ie the head count equation) since we assume each animal has 1 head, and there are 80 heads total.

That equation can be solved to y = 80-x after subtracting x from both sides.

The legs equation is 2x+4y = 248 because...

  • 2x = number of legs from all the ducks only
  • 4y = number of legs from all the cows only
  • 2x+4y = total number of legs from both types of animals combined

We're told there are 248 legs overall, so that's how we ended up with 2x+4y = 248

------------

Let's plug y = 80-x into the second equation and solve for x.

2x+4y = 248

2x+4( y ) = 248

2x+4( 80-x ) = 248

2x+320-4x = 248

-2x+320 = 248

-2x = 248-320

-2x = -72

x = -72/(-2)

x = 36

There are 36 ducks

Now use this x value to find y

y = 80-x

y = 80-36

y = 44

There are 44 cows.

------------

Check:

36 ducks + 44 cows = 80 animals total

36*2 + 44*4 = 72 + 176 = 248 legs total

The answers are confirmed.

Y = 3x - 8<br>y = 4 - X​
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using substitution method.

y = 3x - 8  -------(i)

y = 4 - x -------- (ii)

Substitute y = 3x-8 in equation (ii)

3x -  8= 4 - x                      {Add x to both sides}

3x - 8 + x = 4 - x +x

4x - 8 = 4         {Add 8 to both sides}

4x = 4 + 8

4x = 12    {Divide both sides by 4}

x = 12/4

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 in Equation (i)

y = 3*3 - 8

y = 9 - 8

y = 1
