Answer:

33\frac{1}{3} \%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The average (arithmetic mean) of the 43 numbers in list L is a positive number.

The average of all 48 numbers in both lists L and M is 50 percent greater than the average of the 43 numbers in list L.

Question asked:

What percent greater than the average of the numbers in list L is the average of the numbers in list M?

Solution:

As the total number of observation in both list = 48

And the number of observation in list L = 43

Then, the number of observation in list M = 48 - 43 = 5

Let the average of the 43 numbers in list L = 100

Then the average of all 48 numbers in both lists L and M = 100+ 100\times50\%

                                                                                                =100+100\times\frac{50}{100} \\= 100+\frac{5000}{100} \\= 100+50 = 150

The average of the numbers in list M = 150 - 100 = 50

To find percent greater than the average of the numbers in list L in compare to average of the numbers in list M,

Average of the numbers in list L - average of the numbers in list M divided by the average of all 48 numbers in both lists L and M multiplied by 100

=\frac{100-50}{150} \times100\\\ =\frac{50}{150} \times100\\=\frac{5000}{150} = 33\frac{1}{3} \%

Thus, 33\frac{1}{3} \% greater than the average of the numbers in list L is the average of the numbers in list M.

Solve the system by substitution. 2x - y = -3, 2x-2y = -2
Sonja [21]

Answer:// Solve equation [1] for the variable  y

 [1]    y = 2x - 3

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [2]

  [2]    -2•(2x-3) + 2x = 2

  [2]     - 2x = -4

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  x

  [2]    2x = 4

  [2]    x = 2

// By now we know this much :// Solve equation [1] for the variable  y

 [1]    y = 2x - 3

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [2]

  [2]    -2•(2x-3) + 2x = 2

  [2]     - 2x = -4

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  x

  [2]    2x = 4

  [2]    x = 2

// By now we know this much :

   y = 2x-3

   x = 2

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y

   y = 2(2)-3 = 1

   y = 2x-3

   x = 2

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y

   y = 2(2)-3 = 1

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 14 = 14 x + 7

-7x = -7

x = 1 (one solution)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

5 x + 8 = 8 + 5 x

0 =0 (infinite solutions)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

9x = 9 x + 5 17

0 = 517 (no solution)

HELP THIS IS WORTH 40 POINTS Lucy has a jewelry business. To make a certain necklace, she spends $3.38 on materials and $5.57 on
ankoles [38]
A.) If Lucy sells 1 necklace, her sales would equal to $15.99. Then her profit would be:

Profit = $15.99 - $3.38(1) - $5.57(1)
Profit = $7.04

The fraction of the sale price of the necklace in profit is denoted as x.

15.99x = 7.04
x = 704/1559

b.) This is the same as part (a) but in decimal form. Just simply divide 704 by 1559. The answer is 0.44

c.) If Lucy's sales is $223.86 and each necklace costs $15.99, then the number of necklaces sold is $223.86 ÷ $15.99/necklace = 14 necklaces

Her profit for the 14 necklaces sold would be:

$223.86 - $3.38(14) - $5.57(14) = $98.56
