4.58% is the answer. You need to add the $12.10 to $252 to get the total. 252x100%=2500÷264.10 then subtract the answer from 100.
The method that is not correct is brandon's method.
I hope this helps ( there is no negatives )
<u>Answer</u>:
c = 9
<u>Explanation</u>:
given: f(x)=3x-7
<em>if f(c) =20</em>
To solve this replace x with c and then y is 20.
<u>Solve</u>:
3c - 7 = 20
3c = 27
c = 27 ÷ 3
c = 9
Answer:
The jeweler made 11 bracelets and 7 necklaces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a jeweler had a fixed amount of gold to make bracelets and necklaces, and the amount of gold in each bracelet is 6 grams and the amount of gold in each necklace is 16 grams, knowing that the jeweler used 178 grams of gold and made 7 more necklaces than bracelets, to determine a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of bracelets made and the number of necklaces made, the following mathematical reasoning should be considered:
(16 - 6) x 7 = 70
178 - 70 = 108
108/6 = 18
18 - 7 = 11
(11 x 6) + (7 x 16) = X
66 + 112 = X
178 = X
Thus, the jeweler made 11 bracelets and 7 necklaces.
