100%/x%=148/43
<span>(100/x)*x=(148/43)*x       - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>100=3.44186046512*x       - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (3.44186046512) to get x
<span>100/3.44186046512=x </span>
<span>29.0540540541=x </span>
<span>x=29.0540540541

</span>now we have: 
<span>43 is 29.0540540541% of 148</span>

First, calculate how many reams remain
remaining = 148 - 43
remaining = 105
There are 105 reams of paper remains

Second, change 105 reams into percentage
p = \dfrac{105}{148} \times 100 \%
p = \left(\dfrac{105 \times 100}{148}\right) \%
p = \left(\dfrac{10,500}{148}\right) \%
p = 70.945945945...%
to the nearest tenth
p = 70.9%

The percentage of paper remains is approximately 70.9%

Korolek [52]

Answer:

x = 335 - (6 * v)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the value remaining, we need to first multiply the daily cost of each visit by the number of visits made to the gym which is represented by the variable (v). Once we have this cost of all the days then we subtract this amount from the current account balance in order to get the new remaining balance which is represented by x.

x = 335 - (6 * v)

What is the equation of a line in point-slope form that passes throught -8, 1 and has a slope of 5/6
Flauer [41]

Answer:

5x - 6y +36 =0 is the required equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

(x1, y1) =(-8, - 1)

Slope (m) =5/6

The equation is:

(y - y1) =m(x-x1)

y +1=5/6(x +8)

6y +6 =5x +40

5x - 6y +36 =0 is the required equation.

Hope this helps!!!!
