Yes this is the correct answer
Answer:
<em>Peter now has 54 baseball cards</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
Assume Peter had x baseball cards in his collection. The 35% of his initial collection is
35 * x / 100= 0.35x
We know that those 14 new baseball cards represent a 35% of his previous collection, therefore we can set a simple equation
0.35x=14
When we solve for x, we'll know how many baseball cards Peter had before
x=14 / 0.35 = 40
Peter had 40 cards, he added 14 new baseball cards, so he now has 40+14=54
Peter now has 54 baseball cards

Answer:
Step by Step:
x-2y=4
+2y +2y
x=-2y+4
x-2y=4
-4 -4
x-2y-4=0
+2y +2y
x-4=2y
Divid by 2
1/2x-2= y
x=-2y+4
x=-2(1/2x-2)+4
x=-x+4+4
x=-x+8
+x +x
2x= 8
x=4
y=1/2x-2
y=1/2(4)-2
y=2-2
y=0
(4,0)
