Janes weight = x
Twelve pounds less than twice janes weight is 270 pounds
12 less than 2x is 270
2x -12 = 270 (add 12 to each side)
2x = 270 + 12
2x = 282 (divide 2 from each side)
x = 282/2
x = 141
The answer is 141 pounds
Remember that X will always be one up or down depending on if there is a - or not (if it is just an x) and one over! Hope this helps
1.96, if you multiply that by the length, (which is 2.5) then you will get the area of 4.9 hope this helps
so, three bags can be filled and 0.33 or 0.33*(1/3) =11/100 nails will be left

Answer:
17%
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the percentage of something, you have to fill out the following formula:
x/100 = 21.25/125. Basically that is saying that some percent out of 100 is equal to 21.25 out of 125. To solve that, you have to cross multiply:
125x = 2125
then you have to divide, to single out x:
the answer is 17
so it is 17%
