Answer:

580

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's translate this word for word.

87 is 15% of what number

87 = 15% times x

87=.15 times x

87=.15 \cdot x

Divide both sides by .15

\frac{87}{.15}=\frac{.15x}{.15}

Cancel out the common factor of .15 on the right; that is .15/.15=1.

580=x

580 is the number

Answer:

580

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright. Translate that into math, and you get:

87=15/100x

multiply both sides by x

8700/15=x

x=8700/15

x=580

Check:

580*15/100

58*15/10

870/10

87

BINGO!

Find the first, fourth, and eighth terms of the sequence. a(n)=-2 x 2^n-1
leonid [27]

Answer:

2, 16 and 256.

Step-by-step explanation:

Just substitute  for n:-

first term ( when n = 1) =  2 * 2^(1-1)

= 2 * 1 =  2

4th term =  2 * 2^(4-1) =  16

8th term = 2* 2^(8-1) = 256

What is the solution of the system? Use elimination. <br> 3x - 4y = 9<br> -3x + 2y = 9
densk [106]
You add two equations together to eliminate a variable. This particular problem is nice, because it's already setup to eliminate X.

3x - 4y = 9
<span>-3x + 2y = 9
</span>
When we add these two together, 3x - 3x cancels each other out, leaving us with 0x, or nothing.

We continue with -4y + 2y (leaves us with -2y) and 9+9 (18).

-2y = 18

18/-2 = -9.

Now we have y = -9, and we can go back into the problems to solve for x.

<span>3x - 4(-9) = 9
</span>
3x + 36 = 9.

3x = -27

x = -9.

Confirm with the final equation:

-3(-9) + 2(-9) = 9
27 - 18 = 9
9 = 9 --- Confirmed.
