The first step, would be to make the percent a fraction. 15%=15/100.
So, if they played 60 games, and you want to find how many they lost, you would write x/60, when x=games lost.
15 x
___=___
100 60
Simplify the fraction on the left. Divide the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) by 5, leaving you with 3/20.
3/20=x/60
Make the denominators (bottom) similar
9/60=x/60
x=9

<h2><u>DIRECT RULE OF 3</u></h2>
We use a rule of 3 to solve it.
Let's record the data:
253 miles → 8 hours
x miles → 7 hours
Let's solve:



<h3><u>Answer</u>. The car can travel 221,375 miles in seven hours.</h3>
Answer:
36, 180
Step-by-step explanation:
x = y/5, so y = 5x
y - x = 144
5x - x = 144
4x = 144
x = 144/4 = 36
y = 5x = 5*36 = 180
The two numbers are 36 and 180
The function y = log 2 x has the domain of set of positive real numbers and the range of set of real numbers. Remember that since the logarithmic function is the inverse of the exponential function, the domain of logarithmic function is the range of exponential function, and vice versa.
