21.25% because 85/400 = .2125 which is 21.25%
Let Cynthia's age be C, then Abigail's age A
since Abigail is 8 years older, her age A = C+8.
20 years ago Cynthia's she was C-20 and Abigail was A-20=3(C-20)
A-20=3C-60
A=3C-40
but we just said A=C+8
so 3C-40=C+8
2C=48
C=24
A=24+8=32
Cynthia's age is 24 and Abigail's age is 32
(6 - 2) - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3
6 - (2 - 1) = 6 - 1 = 5
The associative rule doesn't work for subtraction because you get different results when you move the parentheses.
50+ 7.99 x =y
50+ 7.99 (40)= y
50+319.60= y
369.60=y
50+ 7.99 x =y
50 + 7.99 (50)
50+ 399.50=449.50
6.99(30)=209.70
449.50 + 209.70 =659.2
First integer = x
Second integer = x + 2
Third integer = x + 4
Since four times the first integer equals six more than the product of two and the third integer.
4x = 6 + 2(x + 4)
4x = 6 + 2x + 8
2x = 14
x = 7.
Hence,
First integer = x = 7
Second integer = x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9
Third integer = x + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11.
hope this helps
