This is how you solve it; but first of all convert the percent into a decimal;55%= 0.55
0.55x = 164 (divide by 0.55 on both sides)
x = 164/0.55
x = 298.18 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
so 164 is 55% of 298.18(rounded)
Plug in 10 for x in h(x) then simplify
h(10)=2(10)-8
h(10)=20-8
h(10)=12
h(10) is 12 so put 12 in for g(x)
g(h(10))=12-4
g(h(10))=8
Here’s everything together
g(h(10))=(2(10)-8)-4
=(20-8)-4
=(12)-4
=8
This is what I’ve always done. I can’t really tell what your answers are so sorry if this isn’t right at all.
To find the number of words she can read per minute, we would do 560 divide by 7 minutes
560/7 = 80 words per minute
Hope this helps


This is a way to factoring trinomials (there exist different equivalent methods).
Multiply the trinomial but the term accompanying
. This is the second line. Then, you could take the square of the
, ant try to create a factor () () that will correspond to the expression in the second line. That is, we want 
In ? we put the corresponding numbers that, if we multiply them we will obtain 42, and if we add them we will obtain 13. This numbers are 6 and 7. Then, we have 
The last step is divide by the number that we multipy in the first step.
