Answer:

x = 95%

Step-by-step explanation:

2000 - x%2000 = 100

2000 - 2000x/100 = 100

2000 - 20x = 100

2000 - 100 = 20x

1900 = 20x

x = 1900/20

x = 95%

postnew [5]

Answer:

$x = 14$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, the following equation is generated given the available information:

$\frac{(x + 7) + x)}{x + 7} = \frac{12 + 8}{12}$

$\frac{2x + 7}{x + 7} = \frac{20}{12}$

$\frac{2x + 7}{x + 7} = \frac{5}{3}$

Cross multiply

$3(2x + 7) = 5(x + 7)$

$6x + 21 = 5x + 35$

Collect like terms

$6x - 5x = - 21 + 35$

$x = - 21 + 35$

$x = 14$
