<em>The result is -13</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

Here we have the following addition problem:

$2+2-17$

So let's solve this step by step:

Step 1. Perform two plus two.

$2+2=4$

So:

$2+2-17=4-17$

Step 2. Perform the subtraction.

Since the sign (-) accompanies 17 which is greater than 4, then we perform the subtraction and add the sign (-) to the result. So:

$2+2-17=4-17=-13$

<em>Finally, the result is -13</em>

How many units of a 10% solution are needed to prepare 500 units of a 2% solution?

Akimi4 [234]

First find how many units of solution there is:

500* 2% = 500(.02) = 10 units

You need 10 units of solution in 'x' units of a 10% solution.

x*10% = 0.1x = 10 units -----> x = 10/0.1 = 100

100 units are needed

4^4x-5= 8^3x-4 solve

Alexxandr [17]

$4^{4x-5}=8^{3x-4}\\\\(2^2)^{4x-5}=(2^3)^{3x-4}\qquad\text{use}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\2^{2(4x-5)}=2^{3(3x-4)}\iff2(4x-5)=3(3x-4)\qquad\text{use distributive property}\\\\(2)(4x)+(2)(-5)=(3)(3x)+(3)(-4)\\\\8x-10=9x-12\qquad\text{add 10 to both sides}\\\\8x=9x-2\qquad\text{subtract 9x from both sides}\\\\-x=-2\to \boxed{x=2}$

Sales fall from 300 per week to 270 per week what’s the percentage change

weeeeeb [17]

Hi there!

Your question:

Sales fall from 300 per week to 270 per week what's the percentage change?

My answer:

The formula for calculating percent change is as follows:

[(y2 - y1)/y1]*100=your percent change

y2= first value
y1=second value

Plug the numbers in:

[(300-270)/300]*100

[30/300]*100

0.1*100

10

Therefore, the percent change is 10%

Hope this helps! Let me know if it's incorrect so I can fix it:)
