Answer:

48%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very simple problem of finding percentage.

To find percentage of people preferring pizza, we need to divide "number of person who like pizza" by the "total number of person".

So, that's

240/500

And then we need to multiply by 100 and tag a "%" sign at the end. So let's do this:

\frac{240}{500}*100=48

So 48% of the people chose pizza.

Answer:

48%

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{240}{500}  =  \frac{12}{25}

Greatest Common Factor [GCF]: 20

To find the percentage, first, set up the fraction 240⁄500. Next, find the Greatest Common Factor [GCF], which in this case is 20. Doing this will give you 12⁄25. Now, you have to think. Twenty-five is our denominator, PLUS, it is a factor of 100. So you need to figure out the number that when multiplied by 25, it will give you 100, and that number is 4. So, for every 1 you count [numerator], you add 4% to it, or simply just multiply 4 by 12 to get 48.

So, 48% of people chose pizza.

Can someone help me with this?

To find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, we can start by solving for the slope. The slope compares the vertical change (the rise) to the horizontal change (the run) when moving from one fixed point to another along the line.

The slope formula is:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

We need to select 2 pairs of points from your given table.

Let (x1, y1) = (1, 8)

(x2, y2) = (2, 10)

Plug these values into the formula:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (10 — 8)/(2 — 1)

m = 2/1 or 2.

Therefore, the slope of the line is 2.

Next, we need to figure out what the y-intercept of the line is. The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. The y-intercept is also the value of y when x = 0.

Looking at your given table, you have an ordered pair, (0, 6) — this is the y-intercept. The y-coordinate (6) is the value of “b” in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b.

Now that we have our slope (m) = 2, and y-intercept (b) = 6, we can write our equation as follows:

y = 2x + 6

If you start with a number, add 5, then multiply by 7, the result is 133. what was the original number
sergeinik [125]
The original number was:  " 14 " .

____________________________________
 a + 5 = b ;

 b * 7 = 133 .
______________________________________________
What is:  "a" ?
______________________________________________
133 / 7 = 19 = b ;

a + 5 = b = 19 ;

a + 5 = 19 ;

Subtract "5" from each side of the equation;
to isolate "a" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "a" ;
_______________________________________________
    a + 5 − 5 = 19 − 5  ;

to get:
________________________________________________
             a = 14  .
________________________________________________
 Let us check our answer:

Start with "14" ;

Add "5" :   "14 + 5 = 19 " .
______________________
then multiply by "7" :  "19 * 7"
__________________________
and the result is: 133 ?
__________________________
   19 * 7 = ? 133 ? Yes!
