Hello there! To solve for the total box office receipts, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:
270/x = 7.5/100
We do that, because we are looking for the total and 270 is the part of the whole. 270 makes up 7.5% of the box office receipts.
Now, we cross multiply. 270 * 100 is 27,000. 7.5 * x is 7.5x. Divideeach side by 7.5 to isolate the "x". 7.5x/7.5 cancels out the "x". 27,000/7.5 is 3,600. There. x = 3,600. The total box office receipts are $3,600.
Answer:
10 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Jenny has read 50 pages and will read 15 each day.
The equation would be: 15x+50
Mark will read 20 pages daily.
The equation would be: 20x
In both equations x represents days.
You set both equal to each other because you want to know when they read the same amount of pages.
15x+50=20x
...you subtract 15x from both sides
50=5x
...and divide by five to get: 10 days
Answer: C isn't correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
C is NOT correct
The equation that represents the situation is <em>y = 50x</em> not x = 50y
Hope I helped! :3
X should be 33 because its a z angle
