The correct answer is:

How to find X if P percent of it is Y. Use the percentage formula Y/P% = X

Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: Y/P% = X
Y is 26,400, P% is 16%, so the equation is 26,400/16% = X
Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100.
Converting 16% to a decimal: 16/100 = 0.16
Substitute 0.16 for 16% in the equation: 26,400/0.16 = X
Do the math: 26,400/0.16 = X
X = 165,000
So $ 165,000 is the price of the home.

I hope this helps you!!

baherus [9]

Answer:

System of linear equations

\left\{\begin{matrix} 3a+c=38 \\\\   3a+2c=52 \end{matrix}\right.

a: adult ticket price and c: child ticket price

Step-by-step explanation:

This system of equations can be used to find the price of the adult and child tickets.

We have two equations (one for each day) and two unknowns (adult ticket price and child ticket price).

Let a: adult ticket price and c: child ticket price,

we have for the first day that 3 adult tickets and 1 child ticket adds $38:

3a+1c=38

and for the second day we have that 2 adult tickets and 2 child tickets adds $52:

3a+2c=52

If we write this as a system of equations, we have:

\left\{\begin{matrix} 3a+c=38 \\\\   3a+2c=52 \end{matrix}\right.

Adding proper fractions .. 10/12+6/12=need help
mixas84 [53]
Adding fractions is easy when you get the rules...
10/12 + 6/12...
add the numerator which is the top, and keep the denominator which is the bottom.
10/12 +6/12 = 16/12
change that into a mixed number 
16/12 = 1 4/12 which is simplified to 1 1/3
hope this helps
