Answer:

Jiri's age is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P = Pamela's age

and J = Jiri's age. Then

                                           (1)        P = J - 12

                                           (2) P + J = 38

Substitute (1) into (2)         J - 12 + J = 38

Add 12 to each side                J + J = 50

Combine like terms                    2J = 50

Divide each side by 2                  J = 25

Jiri's age is 25.

What is 5/8 as a percent and a decimal
Makovka662 [10]

To write a fraction as a percent, first remember that a percent is a ratio of a number to 100. If we want to write 5/8 as a percent, we need to find a fraction equivalent to 5/8 that has a 100 in the denominator. We can do this by setting up a proportion.

\frac{5}{8} = \frac{n}{100}

<h3 /><h3>8n = 500</h3><h3>÷8     ÷8</h3><h3>    n = 62.5%</h3><h3>Therefore, 5/8 is equal to 62.5%.</h3><h3 />

To write a fraction as a decimal, we can simply divide the numerator by the denominator.

5 ÷ 8 = 0.625

Therefore, 5/8 is equal to 0.625.

Not sure if that is the entire question, but yes, it does. Poly comes from the Greek polus or polloi meaning much or many.

(9x−2.25)=(1.6+9x)<br><br> help
mel-nik [20]
Begin solving like you normally would. Add 2.25 to both sides and subtract 9x from both sides to try getting all x values on one side. However, you will find that after subtracting 9x from both sides, all x values go away, and you end with -2.25=1.6. This is not true (-2.25 is not 1.6), so the answer is no solution. There is no value of x which satisfies that equation.
