Answer:

175.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, translate the words into the symbols. "84" is 84, "%" is 1/100, "what" is x, the unknown, "of" is *, "is" is =, and "175" is 175. Therefore the words can be translated into an equation given below:

84 * x / 100 = 147

84x = 14700

x = 175.

Therefore, 84% of 175 is 147!!!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\bold{METHOD\ 1:}\\\\p\%=\dfrac{p}{100}\to84\%=\dfrac{84}{100}=0.84\\\\84\%\ \text{of}\ x\ \text{is}\ 147\to0.84x=147\qquad\text{divide both sides by 0.84}\\\\x=175\\\\\bold{METHOD\ 2:}\\\\\begin{array}{ccc}100\%&-&x\\84\%&-&147\end{array}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\84x=(100)(147)\\84x=14700\qquad\text{divide both sides by 84}\\x=175$

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation

Complimentary angles have a sum of 90*. Thus when adding the two equations together, we must get 90*.

7x + 17 + 3x - 7 = 90 Combine like terms

10x + 10 = 90 Subtract 10 on both sides

10x = 80 Divide both sides by 10

x = 8

Solve for x and y simultaneously: X-2y=3 4xsquared-5xy+6y=3

Mkey [24]

X - 2y = 3
4x^2 - 5xy + 6y = 3
lets solve for x the first and substitute in the second:
x = 3 + 2y
4(3 + 2y)^2 - 5(3 + 2y)y + 6y = 3
4(9 + 12y + 4y^2) - 15y - 10y^2 = 3
36 + 48y +16y^2 - 15y - 10y^2 = 3
6y^2 + 33y + 33 = 0
we can solve using the general quadratic formula:
y = (-33 +- √(33^2 - 4*6*33))/12
y = (-33 +- √(297))/12
so there are 2 solutions for y:
y1 = (-33 + √(297))/12
y2 = (-33 - √(297))/12
pick one and then substitute the y value in the first equation to find x

1/4 # hamburger = 16 oz to a pound so 1/4 is 4 oz.

1 doz baseballs (12), 5 oz each

Box = 9 oz.

Total weight = 12x5 = 60 oz. + 9 oz. = 69 oz.

69/16 = 4 lb. 5 oz.

I had a summer job cooking two items at a bbq place. I sell burgers for $9.00 and sell chicken sandwiches for $11.25. Because I

Answer:

He sold 180 chicken sandwiches and 150 burguers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 330 items were sold, then the amount of burguers and chicken sandwiches sold must be equal to this value. From this information we have:

burguers + sandwiches = 330

We know that each burguer cost $9 and each chicken sandwich cost $11.25 and that we made a total of $3,375. So we have:

9*burguers + 11.25*sandwiches = 3,375

From the first equation we have:

burguers = 330 - sandwiches

Applying it on the second equation:

9*(330 - sandwiches) + 11.25*sandwiches = 3,375

2,970 - 9*sandwiches + 11.25*sandwiches = 3,375

2.25*sandwiches = 3,375 - 2,970

2.25*sandwiches = 405

sandwiches = 405/2.25 = 180

So,

burguers = 330 - 180 = 150

He sold 180 chicken sandwiches and 150 burguers.

Given: PRST square

yuradex [85]

There is no difficulty in this problem until you construct the figures. How can we do it is shown in the attached picture. After drawing PRST, from the point P, we can draw PMKD and later we can complete PMCT as a result. From this picture, we can see that the side of PMCT is also a. Then, the area of this square is $A=a^{2}$
