So basically you want to find the total percentage of cakes that weren't sponge cakes first.

You already have the 50% of party cakes. For the 1/5 percent of fruit cakes, you can multiply it by 20/20, to get 20/100, and then just take the 20 to get 20% that were fruit cakes.

Now you can just add the percentages together.

50% + 20% = 70%

So now you know 70% weren't sponge cakes, out of 100%.

So here you can just subtract 70% from 100% to figure out the remaining part of 100%, which must be sponge cakes.

100% - 70% = 30%

So 30% of the cakes were sponge cakes.

Answer:

= 105(x+2)/33-x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

[3(x+2)*10*7]÷70 - 2(x+2)

= 3(x+2)*70÷70 - 2(x+2)

= 210(x+2)/70-2x-4

= 210(x+2)/66-2x

= 210(x+2)/2(33-x)

= 105(x+2)/33-x

18. It would be the second graph. The third graph is eliminated as the boy takes a time period to shave, which means there should be a constant point (horizontal line) right after the first incline. The first one is eliminated as the boy takes a bath which requires another constant point in the graph.

To find the median, find the middle number. Since there are 10 numbers, find the 5th one and the 6th one and find their average.

The two numbers are both 9, so its safe to say that the median is 9.

to find the median of the first and quartile, you have to place a line where the median should be and find the median of that. Q1 and Q2 will be 5 and 11 (respectively).

Its easy to see that all the lines start at the lowest point given and end at the largest point given, so match Q1, the median, and Q3

The only line that has lines at the Q1, median, and Q3 we figured out is answer C, so therefore it is the answer.
