This question is read from left to right.
2x - y = 60% of 5y of means multiply.
2x - y = 60/100 * 5y = 300y /100 = 3y 
2x - y = 3y Add y to both sides.
2x = 4y Divide by 2
x = 2y
Now divide by x which is a bit unusual.
1 = 2y/x Now divide by 2
1/2 = y/x

First, translate the words you're given into math: 2x-y = 60% of 5y.
60% = 60/100 = 0.60. 
0.60(5y) = 3y

2x-y = 3y

>> If this is the SAT and you have to do percentage by hand, you can always use fractions. So, 60% = 60/100 = 6/10 = 3/5. \frac{3}{5} * 5 = 3. 
Another quick percentage trick is that 10% of anything is just that number with the decimal point moved to the left one space. For ex: 10% of 5 = 0.5. And then you can multiply 0.5 by 6 (because 10%*6 = 60%) to get 3.

Back to the problem:
Now you have 2x-y = 3y. You are looking for what \frac{y}{x} equals to. Start by separating the x and y variables by putting them on opposite sides of the equal sign:
2x-y = 3y
2x = 4y

You want x and y on one side and numbers on the other side. You also want y to be on the top of the fraction. What you want to do is divide both sides by x first:
2x = 4y\\&#10;2 = 4 \frac{y}{x}

Finally, isolate the variables by dividing by 4 on both sides:
2 = 4 \frac{y}{x} \\&#10; \frac{y}{x} =  \frac{2}{4} \\&#10; \frac{y}{x} =  \frac{1}{2}

The answer is C) 1/2

Part A
.. (480 books)/(5 cartons) = 480/5 books/carton = 96 books/carton

Part B
.. (7440 dollars)/(480 books) = 7440/480 dollars/book = $15.50 for 1 book

Part C
.. (2 minutes)/(48 books) * (200 books) = 400/48 minutes
.. = 8 minutes 20 seconds

Part D
In 9 minutes, the worker unpacked
.. (48 books)/(2 minutes)*(9 minutes) = 216 books
In 9 minutes, the manager upacked
.. (54 books)/(3 minutes)*(9 minutes) = 162 books

We note that 216 -162 = 54.

The worker unpacked 54 more books in 9 minutes than the manager did.

Find m when 4^(m)*4^(2)=12
miv72 [106K]

Step-by-step explanation:

4^m * 4^2 = 12

4^(m + 2) = 4^(log4 12)

m + 2 = log4 (12)

m = log4 (12) - 2.
