Let 'c' represent the number of pictures Chelsea took.
Let 's' represent the number of pictures Sonya took.
For last year's Thanksgiving, c + s = 236
For this year's Thanksgiving, let 'x' represent the number of photos taken in total. x = c + s, where c and s are two integers that are the same (c = s).
And we know that for both years, c + s + x = 500.
As we know that c + s is already 236 from last year, we can remove c + s from the equation in bold and replace it with 236 instead.
236 + x = 500.
Now we have to isolate the x term.
x = 500 - 236
x = 264.
We know that x = c + s, where c and s are the same, so we can just use one of the variables and double it (so you either get 2c or 2s - it doesn't matter which one you pick because they're both the same).
2c = 264
c = 132
c = s
s = 132.
Both took 132 pictures this year.
It depends on what you are trying to calculate but the most common way I go to find percentage is to multiply by the number in decimal for ie. 50% = .5.
If you are looking for a way to do it quickly in your head I always take find out what 10% is like in the case of 100 it would be 10 so if I want to find 15% I know I can find 10% and if I cut what 10% is in half I will find 5% so likewise if I add what 10%+5% I will end up with 15%. For example, 10% of 100 is 10 half of 10 is 5 and 10+5 equals 15. If you need to find something like 20% or 30% I know that I can find 10% and instead of dividing(cutting it in half) I can multiply by 2 or 3. 10% + 10% =20%
I hope it helps, if you have more questions let me know!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Yay graphs!!!!!!
Okay so as you should know, the structure of a linear equation is y = mx + b.
B is the y-intercept
so the first thing to do is mark the coordinates (0,1) as the y-intercept
Now the slope is 1/4 x
this is also known as rise/run
A simpler way to do that is from (0,1) move up 1 and over four and place a point there
The coordinate should be (4,1)
Then draw a line through the two points
