Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given parameters:
Amount earned by Jessica per month = 800
Total savings target per year = 2400
Unknown:
Percentage of savings = ?
Solution:
The total earning per year will be the amount earned per month multiplied by the total number months;
Amount earned in a year = 12 x 800 = 9600
Let the percentage of savings per year = y%
Now;
2400 =
x 9600
y = 25%
Since 32 mil is 1/10 of the US pop, multiply 32 mil by 10 so you get the 10/10 aka the whole US pop. That means it would be 320,000,000. All you do is add a zero to 32 mil since you multiply by 10. 32 mil originally had 6 zeros. After multiplying, you have 7 zeros.
If the ^ is a divided sign then 5x if it’s a multiplication sign 20x! Don’t forget Order of operations.
Start by seeing where the lines go. They cross (intersect) at (1, -1). We can use this to check later.
Now for slope: green is -4/2 = -2
pink is 4/2 = 2
Now we can create the equations
Let's make green = g(x) and pink = p(x)
if we use y = mx + b, then the green has a y-intercept (b) of +1
So g(x) = -2x + 1
pink has a y-intercept of -3, so p(x) = 2x - 3
Now let's plug n play: put our solutions x into each equation and confirm that it makes the y = -1
g(x) = -2x + 1 = -2(1) + 1 = -2+1 = -1
p(x) = 2x - 3 = 2(1) - 3 = 2-3 = -1
✔ YES THEY ARE CONFIRMED
Distribution is multiplying. So
