Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Total shaded checker board (T) = 32

Shaded checker board with pieces (S) = 8

Percentage of Shaded checker board with pieces =?

We can obtain the percentage of checker board with pieces as follow:

Percentage of Shaded checker board with pieces = Shaded checker board with pieces / Total shaded checker board × 100

= S / T × 100

= 8 / 32 × 100

= 25%

Therefore, percentage of Shaded checker board with pieces is 25%

Rachel works at a bookstore. On Tuesday, she sold twice as many books as she did on Monday. On Wednesday, she sold 6 fewer books

natali 33 [55]

Let m = the amount books Rachel sold on Monday.
then t = the amount books Rachel sold on Tuesday.
then w = the amount books Rachel sold on Wednesday.

On Tuesday she sold twice as she did on Monday.
t = m * 2

On Wednesday she sold 6 fewer books than she did on Tuesday
w = t - 6

Now for the fun.

t = m * 2
w = t - 6

Substitute t for real value

w = m * 2 - 6

Now solve for m.

w - 6 = m * 2 <-- Transpose the 6
(w-6)/2 = m <-- Transpose the 2.
m = (w-2)/2 < The Law of Reflexive Property of Equality

What is the answer? x+y=15 -2x+5y=-2

zavuch27 [327]

Multiply the first equation by 2

2x + 2y =30

now we’ll add the second equation to the first equation

2x + 2y =30
-2x+5y= -2

7y=28

divide by 7

y=4

now plug y back into the first equation

x + 4 = 15

subtract 4

x=11

If T equals 1 / r + 1 / s equals r + S over RS, then what is 1 / T in terms of R&S?

Thepotemich [5.8K]

$T=\dfrac{1}{r}+\dfrac{1}{s}\\\\T=\dfrac{1\cdot s}{r\cdor s}+\dfrac{1\cdot r}{r\cdot s}\\\\T=\dfrac{s}{rs}+\dfrac{r}{rs}\\\\T=\dfrac{s+r}{rs}\to\dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{rs}{s+r}$
