To determine this, we need to set up fractional proportions.
First, put 12.5% (what we're looking for) over 100%, which is the total (256).
12.5/100 should be your first fraction.
Now, put x over 256, x being 12.5% of 256.
x/256 should be your second fraction.
Now put these two fractions as an equation.
x/256 = 12.5/100
This may be where things get tricky if you don't pay attention.
Cross multiply the top number (numerator) of x/256 with the bottom number (denominator) of 12.5/100.
You should end up with 100x.
Now, cross multiply the top number of 12.5/100 with the bottom number of x/256.
You should end up with 3200.
Now our equation is:
100x = 3200
Divide both sides by 100 to get x.
100x/100 = x
3200/100 = 32
x = 32 is now your simplified equation.
Your final answer is:
32 is 12.5% of 256.
Also, since 12.5% is 1/8 of 100%, we can test our answer.
Multiply 32 by 8 to get 8/8 (100%).
32 x 8 = 256.
Your answer is 32.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
the range is {7,5,1}
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the range, just plug in the domain into the function.
f(-1) = -2(-1) + 5 = 7
f (0) = -2(0) + 5 = 5
f(2) = -2(2) + 5 = 1
The answer is A trust me I did it before
Answer:
x = 6 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
10+3(x+2)=36
10+3x+6=36 Solve inside the parenthesis.
16+3x=36 Combine like terms.
-16 -16 Subtract 16 from both sides.
3x/3=20/3 Divide both sides by 3.
x=6 2/3 The answer is x= 6 2/3, or 6.66666666666667
