Answer: 20% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
change/ original number
(60 - 50 / 50) x 100 = 20
20%
250 - 5(x) = 50
250 (-250) - 5x = 50 (-250)
-5x = -200
-5x/-5 = -200/-5
x = 40
hope this helps
you are 40 years old!

Answer:
x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
given 
-2=0
=2
x+3=+2
x=-1, also, x+3=-2
x=-2-3=-5
hence x=-1 , -5 answer
Answer:
x = 7, y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
solve for y for the first equation
2x + y = 20
-2x -2x , eliminate 2x
y = 20-2x
now that we have found y, substitute the y in for the second equation
-5y = -6x + 12
-5(20-2x) = -6x + 12, we just changed y into 20-2x. remember that we are multiplying all of 20 - 2x by -5
-100+10x = -6x + 12, we multiplied everything from the parathesis by -5
+100 + 100, eliminate -100
10x = -6x + 112
+6x +6x , eliminate 6x
16x = 112 , solve for x
x = 7
then y = 20 - 2x = 20 - 2*7 = 6
check:
2 * 7 + 6 = 20
20 = 20
-5 * 6 = -6 * 7 + 12
-30 = -42 + 12
-30 = -30
