The percent of said number must be over 100% because 100% is the whole value of a number
Ex:
105% of 20 is 21 because, 100% of 20 is 20 and 5% of 20 is 1
150% of 20 is 30 because, 100% of 20 is 20 and 50% of 20 is 10
Hope this helps
x= -13 , y=11
Step-by-step explanation:
Using elimination method, make the x variable equal to eliminate the variable
-3x - y = -28
2x+ 3y=7
2(-3x-y =28)
3(2x+3y=7)
-6x - 2y =56
6x +9y=21
Apply addition
7y = 77
y=77/7 = 11
Use the value of y=11 in
2x+ 3y=7
2x +3(11) =7
2x +33 =7
2x=7-33
2x= -26
x= -26/2 = -13

No it isn’t. it works for the first equation but not the second
X - (-20) = 5
When you subtract a negative, change it to addition:
X + 20 = 5
Subtract 20 from both sides:
X = -15
The base is 3+(x), altitude is x so substitute. Now we know the area of a triangle is base X height X 1/2. Substitute again! 1/2 (3+x)(x)=35. Multiply both sides by 2 to cancel out the 1/2. Now you have (x)(x+3)=70 and you have to foil out the left side x^2+3x=70. Subtract 70 on both sides x^2+3x-70=0. Find two numbers that multiply to -70 and add to 3. Solve (x+10)(x-7)=0. the x value is 7. since you can't have negative length values. Substitute 7 into 3+x for the base so you know the base is 10 and the height is 7.
