Answer:
x = 486956.5217
Step-by-step explanation:
5.75% of x = 28000
Of means multiply
Change the percent to a decimal
.0575 * x = 28000
Divide by .0575 on each side
.0575/.0575 * x = 28000/.0575
x = 486956.5217
$42.35. 36/.85= 42.3529412
Answer: 40:8
Because if you cross multiply they’d all be even
You always want to get y by itself and in the form y = mx + b. So first, subtract 4x from both sides to get -y = -4x +32
You also want to get rid of that negative sign. That’s easy, divide everything by negative 1 to get:
y = 4x - 32
We can see the slope is just 4 and the y intercept is -32. The y-intercept is when x equals zero, you’ll get -32 if you do so. The x-intercept is now when y equals zero. Now solve for x. You get 4x = 32, divide by 4 to get 8
a.) 8
b.) -32
c.) 4
