2/3 n = -12 Write equation
(3/2) 2/3n = -12/1 (3/2) Isolate n
n = -36/2 Simplify
n = -18 Answer
So what will it be a percentage of? it will be the percentage of the original recruits, of the original 150.
for this, we need to divide the number of recruits that left over all recruits, and multiply by 100%:
so the number of trainees decreased by 20 %
Answer:
Y = 6 X=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
- Add the numbers 8x+-8x=0. 5y+y=6y. 22+14=36
- So that means 6y=36. So Y would equal 6
- Substitute the values it one of the original equations. 8x + 5(6) =22. 8x+30=22
- Minus 22 from both sides.
- That would give you 8x=-8
- So x would equal - 1
The key with these problems is to find which function has the closest y-intercept to the graph, and then try to figure out which one best approximates the slope.
Here are our options:
<span>A. y = x + 4
B. y = 4x + 9
C. y = x + 18
D. y = 3x + 22
Which has the closest approximation of the y-intercept?
The y-intercept is not directly given, but we can assume it is less than 10.
That leaves us with A and B.
Which has the closest approximation of the slope?
The graph, on average, seems to move up about 60 and over about 15.
Slope = rise/run = 60/15 = 4. Although the slope isn't exactly 4, it's much closer to 4 than 1, which is slope for option A.
Therefore, the answer is
B) y= 4x + 9

the answer of this equation is -5
