In this problem WP means what percent
20 = WP X 160
solve for WP, by dividing both sides by 160
and you get:
0.125 = WP
Change your decimal into a percent by multiplying by 100%
12.5% is your result.
THE SECOND ONE IS THE CORRECT ANSWER (B)
good luck
Rewriting the equation as a quadratic equation equal to zero:
x^2 - x - 30 = 0
We need two numbers whose sum is -1 and whose product is -30. In this case, it would have to be 5 and -6. Therefore we can also write our equation in the factored form
(x + 5)(x - 6) = 0
Now we have a product of two expressions that is equal to zero, which means any x value that makes either (x + 5) or (x - 6) zero will make their product zero.
x + 5 = 0 => x = -5
x - 6 = 0 => x = 6
Therefore, our solutions are x = -5 and x = 6.
Answer:
The largest integer value that makes the inequality true is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify.</em>
1x - 8 < 2x + 1
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><u><em>x</em></u>
- Simplify: x - 8 < 2x + 1
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract <em>x</em> on both sides: -8 < x + 1
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 1 on both sides: -8 < x
- Rewrite: x > -8
∴ we see that any number <em>x greater than -8</em> would work as a solution to the inequality. That would mean the next largest integer, 9, would be our answer.
