The percent of working students increased 8.1 to 40.5 what was the present prior to increase

Answer:

  32.4

Step-by-step explanation:

prior + 8.1 = 40.5 . . . . . . seems to model the problem statement

prior = 32.4 . . . . . . . subtract 8.1 from both sides

Prior to the increase the percent was 32.4.

_____

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>

When you're talking about a percentage increase in a percentage, it is almost never clear whether you're talking about the percentage of the underlying number, or the percentage of the percentage.

Here, we assume the 8.1 is a percentage of working students, not a percentage of the percentage of workings students. If you actually intend the latter, the percentage before the increase was about 37.465%.

Which graph represents the solution set of the system of inequalities?
vivado [14]
Solve first for the solution of the inequalities. This can be done by replacing first the inequalities sign with the equal sign. 

x + y = 1
2y = x - 4

The values of x and y from the system of linear equation are 2 and -1. This means that the intersection of the lines should be at point (2, -1). 

Substitute 3 to x and determine the value of y from the second inequality.
 2y ≥ x - 4

Substituting,
  2y ≥ 3 - 4, y ≥ -1/2

Hence, the solution to this item should be the fourth one.
