Mathematics
1 answer:
Dovator [93]4 years ago
3 0

Divide 20 % by 100 to get its decimal form. 

Dividing 20 % by 100 equals 0.2.

Set up an equation as 0.2x = 8, 

which means 20 %of x equals 8.

Solve the equation by dividing each side by 0.2. 

Dividing 0.2 from each side results in  x = 40. Eight is 20 % of 40.

If the company provides 1 1/4 vacation days to its employees every month,how many vacation days does an employee get every year?
FromTheMoon [43]
We know there are 12 months in a year so we would multiply 1 1/4 by 12. We can write 1 1/4 as 1.25 (to make it easier to multiply). 12x1.25=15
Your answer is 15 vacation days in one year

marta [7]

Answer:

One rose bush = $3

One bunch of ornamental grass = $4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a system of equations to solve for this. Let cost of 1 rose bush be r and cost of 1 ornamental grass be g. Thus we can form 2 equations:

14r+7g=70\\5r+14g=71

We can multiply the first equation by -2 so that we can eliminate g. Thus, we have:

(*-2)14r+7g=70\\5r+14g=71\\-------\\-28r-14g=-140\\5r+14g=71\\--------\\-23r=-69\\r=\frac{-69}{-23}=3

Thus, 1 rose bush is $3. Now plugging in r = 3 into the first original equation, we can solve for g:

14r+7g=70\\14(3)+7g=70\\42+7g=70\\7g=70-42\\7g=28\\g=\frac{28}{7}=4

Thus, 1 bunch of ornamental grass is $4.
