Step 1:
Add rent & car payments
=11,250+1422
=$12,672
Step 2:
to determine %, set up a proportion
12,672 is to his total of 39,600 as x is to 100
12,672/39,600 = x/100
cross multiply
(12,672)(100) = (39,600)(x)
1,267,200= 39,600x
divide both sides by 39,600
32%= x
OR
Alternative Step 2:
12,672 ÷ 39,600= 0.32
Alternative Step 3:
0.32 x 100 = 32%
or move decimal to the right 2 places
His rent and car payments are 32% of his earnings.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
36(x + 4) = 36
Divide both sides by 36
x + 4 = 1
Subtraact 4 from both sides
x = -3
In the equation y=mx+b, the variable m represents the slope of the line. Therefore, the equation -5x+2y=10 can be rearranged into 2y=5x+10. Isolate the y to get y=2.5x+5. The slope of the line is 2.5
