N = the number
0.5n - 9 = 4n + 5
(0.5n - 0.5n) - 9 = (4n - 0.5n) + 5
-9 = 3.5n + 5
(-9 - 5) = 3.5n + (5 - 5)
-14 = 3.5n
-14/3.5 = 3.5n/3.5
-4 = n
The number is -4.
Answer:
1.2%
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that for every 500 computers, 6 are defective. So, to know what percentage of computers are defective on average, we can do a rule of three:
500 computers -> 6 defective
100 computers -> X defective
500/100 = 6/X
X = 100 * 6 / 500 = 1.2
So, in average, for every 100 computers, 1.2 are defective, so the percentage is 1.2% (1.2 for every 100)
2% as a reduced fraction is 2/100 = 1/50
Your answer is A. Y=5- 1/3x
