x-2= another number

x²- (x-2)²=20

x²-x²-4x+4=20

-4x=20-4

x=16/-4

x=-4

2 x 2 = 4
2 x 3 = 6!

So 6 divided by 2 (6/2) is just the oppoposite of 2 x 3 = 6

A child got 16.67/20 on a test. what is their grade in percent form?​
solong [7]

Answer:

83.4% or 83%

Step-by-step explanation:

when trying to find a percent, divide the numerator (# of correct answers) by the denominator (# of total questions possible to get correct)

Which would be 16.67 divided by 20 which equals .8335. Move the decimal point over two placements which would be 83.35. I rounded it up to 83.4. If trying to find a whole number not a decimal it would be 84%. Depending on the grading scale, it would be a B.
