First you must see how many seats were bought. To do this you must make a proportion
80 is a percent and percent's are always taken out of the 100. This means that one proportion will have 80 as the part and 100 as the whole
We want to know what 80% of 2,500 is in order to find how many seats were sold before the show. This means 2,500 is the whole and the unknown (let's make this x) is the part.
Here is your proportion:
Now you must cross multiply
x*100 = 80*2,500
100x = 200,000
To isolate x divide 100 to both sides
100x/100 = 200,000/100
x = 2,000
This means that before the night of the concert 2,000 seats were bought.
We are still not done with this problem because we want to know how many seats are left the night of the concert. To find this simply subtract 2,000 from the number of original seating (2,500)
2,500 - 2,000 = 500
On the night of the concert there were 500 seats left.
Hope this helped!

Answer:
x is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find x two different ways.
The first way is to look at the numbers on the left side. You need to find the scale factor used to get from 4 to 6.
4 x 1.5 = 6
Use this for the 8
8 x 1.5 = 12
The other way you can use is look at the number on the top triangle. You need to find the scale factor used to get from 4 to 8.
4 x 2 = 8
Use this for the 6
6 x 2 = 12
Answer:
+8
Step-by-step explanation:
this is because when a negative multiplies with another negative it becomes positive
Answer:
m = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
4m/5 - 2m/3 =1
We want to get rid of the fractions so multiply each side by 5*3 or 15
15 *(4m/5 - 2m/3 ) =1*15
15 *(4m/5) -15( 2m/3 ) =1*15
Canceling like factors
3* 4m -5*2m = 15
Multiply
12m - 10m = 15
2m = 15
Divide each side by 2
2m/2 = 15/2
m = 7.5
Answer:
1. C=35m?
2.C=700 or $700
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Total Cost= Rate x Number of Months
2. C=35m
Cost=rate x number of months
C=35(20)
C=700 or Total Cost=$700
