First, figure out what you do and don't know....
You do know that 3 times the sum of a number and 4 is 18 more than the number....you don't know the number so you make it the variable x
now take 3 times the sum of a number and 4 and make that an expression 3x+4 this expression is the same or equal to the sum of x and 18 x+18
3x+4=x+18
2x+4=18
2x=14
x=7
hope this helped :)
Depending on what you're supposed to do, the three could either mean to distribute it into the equation, giving you
either
(3*2015) or (3*20)*(3*15) or (3*20) +/- (3*15)
Or an example of factoring where they took 3 out of 60 and 45.
There are no instruction on what to do in this question.
Percent increase=increase/original times 100
increase=26-21=5
original=21
so
5/21 times 100=0.23809523809523809523809523809524 times 100=23.809523809523809523809523809524
round
24%
so 24% increase
Answer:
-x + 20y
Step-by-step explanation:
trust me.. its right
1/4
There are 100 pence in a pound, so 2 pounds is 200 pence. 50 is 1/4 of 200.
