Find the percent of increase to the nearest whole from 12 to 20

Mathematics
1 answer:
ankoles [38]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>67\%</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage increase we use the formula

<h3>Percentage \:   change =  \frac{change}{original \:  \: quantity}  \times 100\%</h3>

From the question

The original value = 12

To find the change we subtract the smaller value from the larger one

That's

Change = 20 - 12 = 8

So the percentage increase is

<h3>\frac{8}{12}  \times 100 \%\\  =  \frac{2}{3}  \times 100\% \\  = 66.67\%</h3>

We have the final answer as

67\% to the nearest whole number

Hope this helps you

Given the system of equations:
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

x=4

y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2y=12

x−y=2

​In order to solve by elimination, coefficients of one of the variables must be the same in both equations so that the variable will cancel out when one equation is subtracted from the other.

2x+2y=12,x−y=2

To make 2x and x equal, multiply all terms on each side of the first equation by 1 and all terms on each side of the second by 2.

2x+2y=12,2x+2(−1)y=2×2

Simplify.

2x+2y=12,2x−2y=4

Subtract 2x−2y=4 from 2x+2y=12 by subtracting like terms on each side of the equal sign.

2x−2x+2y+2y=12−4

Add 2x to −2x. Terms 2x and −2x cancel out, leaving an equation with only one variable that can be solved.

2y+2y=12−4

Add 2y to 2y.

4y=12−4

Add 12 to −4.

4y=8

Divide both sides by 4.

y=2

Substitute 2 for y in x−y=2. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for x directly.

x−2=2

Add 2 to both sides of the equation.

x=4

The system is now solved.

x=4,y=2

Correct choice is B) x=4.

Convert the following equation to slope-intercept form y+5=1/2(x-8)
alexandr402 [8]

Answer: y = 1/2x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

  • y + 5 = 1/2(x - 8)
  • y + 5 = 1/2x - 4 (distribute)
  • y = 1/2x - 9 (subtract 5 from both sides)
