Answer:The square below represents one whole.
What percent is represented by the shaded area?
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Marcus bought a booklet of tickets to use at the amusement park.
He used 50% of the tickets on rides, 13% of the tickets on video games, and the rest of the tickets in the batting cage.
To Find :
Marcus says he used 10% of the tickets in the batting cage.
Solution :
We know sum of all the percentage should be equal to 100.
So,
( % used on rides ) + ( % used on video game ) + ( % used in batting cage ) = 100
Let, % of ticket spend on batting cage is x.
50 + 13 + x = 100
x = 100 - ( 50 + 13 )
x = 37%
So, Marcus used 37% in batting cage.
Therefore, the statement by Marcus that he use 10% of the ticket in the cage is wrong.
The slope of the line is -3/4
So the equation we are working with is y=mx +b. If you use the distance formula, you will find the slope. The slope is 1/2 and the y intercept is 0. your equation is y=1/2x. So plug in the point that it gives you.
-2 is your y value.
so it will look like this: (x could also be n)
-2=1/2x...solve....n=-4
Answer:
x=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
since the y's cancel out, set the first equation equal to the second and solve like you'd normally do.
