Pieces of Mail. The number of pieces of mail

Mathematics
1 answer:
Zina [86]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

20.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of the pieces of mail handled by the U.S postal service decreased from 212,000,000,000 to 168,000,000

Therefore the percentage decrease can be calculated as follows

= 212,000,000,000-168,000,000,000

= 44,000,000,000/212,000,000,000 × 100

= 0.2075 × 100

= 20.8 %

Hence the percentage decrease is 20.8%

Which constant could each equation be multiplied by to eliminate the x variable in this system of equations? 4x + 5y = 62 5x − 3
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Multiply equation 4x+5y=62 by 5 and 5x-3y=22 by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Equations are 4x+5y=62,5x-3y=22

To find: constant by which each equation should be multiplied to eliminate the variable x in the given system of equations

Solution:

4x+5y=62...(i)\\5x-3y=22...(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by 5 and (ii) by 4 to get the following equations:

20x+25y=310\\20x-12y=88

On subtracting these equations, we get

(20x+25y)-(20x-12y)=310-88\\\\13y=222

So, the variable x gets eliminated
