Answer: He still owns 64% of the Mr.Williams' original parking.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Area of the original parking plot.

First he sold 20% of his lot to neighbor .

Sold plot = 20% of x = 0.20x  [Replace 'of' by '×' and divide number by 100 to remove %]

Reminder= x-0.20x= (1-0.20)x=0.80x

Again he sold 20% of the remainder .

Sold plot = 20% of (0.80x) = 0.20 (0.80x)

= 0.16x

Remainder plot = 0.80x-0.16x= 0.64x

Percent of Mr.Williams' original parking lot does he still own = \dfrac{0.64x}{x}\times100=64\%

Hence, he still owns 64% of the Mr.Williams' original parking.

Given the following table, determine the matching representations.

The 3rd answer choice (y = x - 2). The y-intercept based on the table is at -2 (0,2), and the slope is y/x which in this case is -1/-1 = 1. The equation y = x - 2 follows the form of y = mx + b where “b” is the y-intercept and “m” is the slope. Since the slope is “1”, m = “1”, leaving the equation to have “x” by itself without a true coefficient. To add on, the y-intercept is -2, letting b = -2. Hence, the third option is correct.

Solve this equation. 5n+7=7(n+1)-2n
9966 [12]
Distribute 7 to both n and 1

7(n + 1) = 7n + 7

5n + 7 = 7n + 7 - 2n

Combine like terms

5n + 7 = 7n - 2n + 7

5n + 7 = 5n + 7

If you want to solve for n, subtract 7 from both sides

5n + 7 (-7) = 5n + 7 (-7)

5n = 5n

then divide 5 from both sides

5n/5 = 5n/5

n = n

Effectively, this equation is <em>unsolvable</em>

liq [111]

Answer:

The cost of one bear is <u>$47,000</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete and the data is missing so the complete question with data is below with attached files:

To celebrate there 125 anniversary, a company in Germany produced 125 very expensive teddy bears. The bears,known as the "125 karat teddy bears", are made mohair,silk and gold thread and have diamond and sapphire eyes.

The chart shows the approximate cost of " 125 teddy bears". Based on the pattern, how much does one bear cost?

Now, to get the cost of one bear.

So, we solve it by using unitary method:

If 4 bears cost = $188,000.

Then 1 bear cost = 188000\div 4=47000

Thus, cost of one bear is $47,000.

Now, we check it by using another pattern of the data:

If 7 bears cost = $329,000.

Then 1 bear cost = 329000\div 7=47000.

Hence, the cost of one bear is $47,000.

Therefore, the cost of one bear is $47,000.
