Given :

The length of the rectangle, l = 8 cm/

The width of the rectangle, w = 75% of 8 cm

$= \frac{75}{100} \times 8$

$=\frac{15}{20} \times 8$

= 0.75 x 8

= 6

Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 6 cm.

I’m confused on this answer anyone know it?

Answer:

$y=\frac{26}{7},\:x=-\frac{15}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\begin{bmatrix}4x+5y=10\\ -2x+y=8\end{bmatrix}\\\\\begin{bmatrix}-2\cdot \frac{10-5y}{4}+y=8\end{bmatrix}\\\\$

$-5+\frac{7y}{2}=8\\\\\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}2\\-5\cdot \:2+\frac{7y}{2}\cdot \:2=8\cdot \:2\\-10+7y=16\\y=\frac{26}{7}\\$

$\mathrm{For\:}x=\frac{10-5y}{4}\\\mathrm{Subsititute\:}y=\frac{26}{7}\\x=\frac{10-5\cdot \frac{26}{7}}{4}\\\\$

$x=-\frac{15}{7}\\$

78 is 15% of what #?

nirvana33 [79]

1. 78 = 0.15x
78 / 0.15 = x
520 = x.....so 78 is 15% of 520

2. | 3x - 2 | = 8 | x + 1 | = 1

3x - 2 = 8 -(3x - 2) = 8 x + 1 = 1 -(x + 1) = 1
3x = 8 + 2 -3x + 2 = 8 x = 1 - 1 -x - 1 = 1
3x = 10 -3x = 6 x = 0 -x = 2
x = 10/3 x = -2 x = -2

ur answer is : x = -2

3. 3y - 4x + 5 = 0
3y = 4x - 5
y = 4/3x - 5/3
slope = 4/3
