Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
44 dollars after 4 days so 44 divided by 4 = 11
the answer is b
X is a bigger number and the difference between x and y is 7, so x-y=7. And it says that the sum of two numbers is 31 so x+y=31
Let x be the number.
"twelve decreased by twice a number" ---> 12 - 2x
"8 times the sum of number and 4" ---> 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8x + 32 (distributive property)
12 = 10x + 32 (add 2x to both sides)
-20 = 10x (subtract 32 from both sides)
x = -2 (divide both sides by 10)
Answer:
75% bigger
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first number be x and the second be y.
So:
And:
-----30% less than x
Substitute in
Cross multiply
Collect like terms
Make x the subject
So, the average is:
Rewrite as:
Express as percentage
This means that the average is 75% bigger than the second number
