Answer:
The original number was 54.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a number is increased by 2.8%, then it is 102.8% of it's original number.
In mathematics, "of" in virtually all cases means "multiplied by".
Therefore, we do the opposite:
1. Convert to a decimal.
102.8% = 1.028
2. Divide by the decimal.
3. Round it to the nearest tenth.
54.47 rounds to 54.5.
Answer:
Tomas added 6 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
Tomas is making trail mix using granola and walnuts. He can spend a total of $12 on the ingredients. He buys 3 pounds of granola that costs $2.00 per pound. The walnuts cost $6 per pound. He uses the equation 2x + 6y = 12 to represent the total cost, where x represents the number of pounds of granola and y represents the number of pounds of walnuts. He solves the equation for y, the number of pounds of walnuts he can buy.
Given:
2x + 6y = 12
where
x = number of pounds of granola y = number of pounds of walnuts
The correct solution to the problem
x = 3 pounds
2x + 6y = 12
2(3) + 6y = 12
6 + 6y = 12
Subtract 6 from both sides
6 + 6y - 6 = 12 - 6
6y = 6
Divide both sides by 6
y = 6/6
= 1
y = 1 pound
Tomas added 6 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 6.
