Let the number be x
2/3*x - 2 = 10
or, 2/3 * x =12
or x= 12*3/2
or, x = 18
Percent change is 100%
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Find the perimeter of the first garden when length = 6 ft and width = 4 ft
Perimeter = 2 (length + width)
= 2 (6 + 4) = 2 × 10 = 20 ft
- Step 2: Find the perimeter of the second garden when length = 12 ft and width = 8 ft (∵ dimensions are doubled)
Perimeter = 2 (12 + 8) = 2 × 20 = 40 ft
- Step 3: Find the percent change in perimeter
Percent Change = Final value - initial value/Initial Value × 100
= (40 - 20/20) × 100
= 1 × 100 = 100%
Answer:
Find the value of x if B is the midpoint of AC, AB = 2x + 9 and BC = 37
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is -51, hope this helps
x = # of balcony seats
y = # of orchestra seats
We have to create a system of equations to solve this problem
x + y = 256
$8x + $12y = $2,716
We will solve this system of equations by elimination.
Multiply the first equation by -8
-8x - 8y = -2048
8x + 12y = 2716
Let's add the equations together
0 + 4y = 668
Simplify the left side
4y = 668
Divide both sides by 4
y = 167
We can subtract 167 from 257 to get the number of balcony seats.
257 - 167 = 90 balcony seats
There are 167 orchestra seats and 90 balcony seats
