You should try reading notes you took during your class period.
Answer:
87.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 376 students in 8th grade at Samuel's school. There are 47 8th graders trying out for football last Thursday.
The number is students not trying out for football last Thursday is calculated as:
376 students - 47 students
= 329 students
The percent of 8th graders that did not try out for football is calculated as:
329 students/376 students × 100
= 329/376 × 100
= 87.5 %
Y = x - 7 ---------- (1)
5x + 2y = 7 ------ (2)
Sub (1) into (2):
5x + 2(x -7) = 7
5x + 2x - 14 = 7
7x - 14 = 7
7x = 7 + 14
7x = 21
x = 3 ----- -sub into (1)
y = x - 7
y = 3 - 7
y = -4
Ans: x = 3, y = -4
