Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation:

Note that

then

Rewrite the equation as

then

Write a proportion first, change over original, like this:
8 x
16 100
(I got 8 because the difference between 24 and 16 is 8 and I got 100 because percents are out of 100.)
Cross multiply 8 by 100 and you get 800.
Divide 800 by 16 and you get 50.
It changed by 50%
question 19
equal to: 3's
less than: 2's, 1's
greater than: 0's
question 20
40 gallons, 12 concentrate, 28 water
this is a fraction of 12/28
simplification: (12) divided by 12 / (28) divided by 12
1/2
1 part concentrate 2 parts water per each of the 40 total gallons.
so color in 33% for concentrate and 66% water
I am totally not wrong :D:D:D:D
The correct answer is b. 14(m-8).
This is because it says that the weight of the boxes drew lifted were 8 pounds less than what marco lifted. This can be represented by m-8. You then need to multiply this by the amount of boxes that drew lifted, or 14.
