Answer:
11 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Length of new pencil = 19 cm
Length of pencil after using a month = 8 cm
Question asked:
The pencil is centimeters shorter now than when it was new = ?
Solution:
Length of new pencil = 19 cm
Length of pencil after using a month = 8 cm
The pencil is centimeters shorter now than when it was new = 19 cm - 8 cm
= 11 cm
Length of pencil has been used during a month = 11 cm
% means out of 100 so 1%=1/100
so 3%=3/100
$30.00=3000 cents
so you multiply 3/100 by 3000 =(3*3000)/100
you can cross out two zeros at the bottom and on the top and get
(3*30)/1 or 90/1 or 90 cents
For this case we have the following system of equations:

From the first equation we clear "x":

We substitute in the second equation:

We apply distributive property:

We add similar terms:

We add 65 to both sides:

We divide between 22 on both sides:

We look for the value of the variable "x":

Thus, the solution of the system is:

ANswer:

Multiplying a negative number and another negative number makes the product positive.
So (-2.1)*(-1.4) = 2.94
hundred means 100 or 200. Like I have 100 cats.
Hundredth means you have 1/100 of something. I have a peice of pie that is 1/100 of the pie. That means there are 100 pieces of the pie but I only have one out the hundred pieces.
hundred=100
hundredth = 1/100 = 0.01
tenth= 1/10 = 0.1
