The answer would be 8 although, if you have to show work I can't help you.. I'm trying to help but I haven't learned percentage yet so I am using my percentage calculator.
<span>We know that
there is no universal acceptance meaning of a percentile. When someone told you
that you are in the 80th percentile, the meaning of that is you
have achieved the lowest score that is greater than 80 percent of the score. It is calculated by using the formula <span>R = P/100 x (N + 1)</span></span>
An equation expresses the relation between variables. A relation between y and x can be drawn as a graph in the xy plane.
In order to do that, you want to "plug in" a value for x, and then get the result as a value for y. With an equation that expresses y in terms of x, you can do just that. For example, plug in the value x=3 in the equation y=2x+4 easily gives you y=10. You plot the point (3,10) and repeat for different x.
If y is not clearly expressed in terms of x, you get equations like: 2x + 4y + x/y = 0. You cannot plug in an x and calculate a y in an easy way.
Most of the time you'll be able to rewrite the equation in the right "pluggable" form. In fact, when you have an equation in this form, it maps one to one to a function f(x). y=2x+4 and f(x)=2x+4 is kind of the same thing. "f is a function of x" and "y is expressed in terms of x" are similar statements.
It takes 3 years. If your question has a graph you can solve by looking at the graph but if not then I already answered it and I'm letting you know it should be 3 years.
