8 0

Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

You would get 20 times 10 so that would 80 percent of it

Then you would add another 16 percent so that would be 240

Then you have 4 percent left so half of 20 if 10

So therefore you have 250

Good evening

Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unknown number

20 is 8 percent of x means 20 = x(8/100)

then 20 = 8x/100

then

8x = 2000

then

x = 2000/8

then

x = 250

Verification: 250×8% = 20

exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite interior angle

4n-18+n+8=133-6n

5n+6n=133+10

11n=143

n=143/11

n=13

exterior angle =133-6*13=55°

2/3x + 1/6 = -3/4x + 1

kupik [55]

$\frac{2}{3} x + \frac{1}{6} = -\frac{3}{4} x + 1$

First, simplify $\frac{2}{3} x$ to $\frac{2x}{3}$ / Your problem should look like: $\frac{2x}{3} + \frac{1}{6} = -\frac{3}{4} x + 1$
Second, simplify $\frac{3}{4} x$ to $\frac{3x}{4}$ / Your problem should look like: $\frac{2x}{3} + \frac{1}{6} = -\frac{3x}{4} + 1$
Third, multiply both sides by 12 (the LCM of 3 and 4) / Your problem should look like: $8x + 2 = -9x + 12$
Fourth, subtract 2 from both sides. / Your problem should look like: $8x = -9x + 12 - 2$
Fifth, simplify -9x + 12 - 2 to -9x + 10. / Your problem should look like: $8x = -9x + 10$
Sixth, add 9x to both sides. / Your problem should look like: $8x + 9x = 10$
Seventh, add 8x + 9x to get 17x. / Your problem should look like: $17x = 10$
Eighth, divide both sides by 17. / Your problem should look like: $x = \frac{10}{17}$

Answer as fraction: x = $\frac{10}{17}$
Answer as decimal: x = 0.5882
