To solve this problem, we must divide the number of movies that Jenny thought were very good by the total number of movies she watched. This is because we are finding a percentage, which represents a part out of a whole that have a factor, which in this case is very good movies. First, we begin by dividing 44/55. Then, we realize that both the numerator and the denominator are divisible by 11, so if we divided them both by 11 that would simplify the fraction.
44/55 = 44/11 / 55/11 = 4/5
Next, we can now easily divide our simplified fraction.
4/5 = 0.8
Finally, we must multiply by 100, because a percentage is a portion of 100 (the total is 100%). This is equivalent to moving the decimal point two places to the right.
0.8 * 100 = 80%
Therefore, Jenny thinks that 80% of the movies she watched this year were very good.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
16 quarters
30 pennies
Step-by-step explanation:
q= quarters
p=pennies
set up a system of equations. One equation is for total value, the other is total # of coins.
q + p = 46
0.25q + 0.01p = 4.30 -> multiply this equation by 4 so you can subtract from the top equation
q + P =46
1q + 0.04p = 17.20
subtract the bottom equation from the top
0.96p = 28.8
divide by 0.96
p=30
substitute p in the top equation
q + 30 = 46
subtract 30 from both sides
q = 16
6x + 2 - 2 = 14 - 2
6x/6 = 12/6
x = 2
Answer:
k=8
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve using the slope formula
m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
3/5 = (k-2)/(4- -6)
3/5 = (k-2)/(4+6)
3/5 = (k-2)/10
Multiply each side by 10
10*3/5 = (k-2)/10 *10
6 = k-2
Add 2 to each side
6+2 = k-2+2
8 = k
