Starting from what I know (the difference between ribbons), I decided to go from the bottom and work my way up. I then noticed a pattern (each sum was three more of the previous one), and decided to keep my pattern of the three numbers but not have to do any major mental work and instead add three to the previous sum until I got to 38.
Haha, you first start off with adding 3 to both sides, cancelling the -3, and adding it to 9. you end up with 5x=12, in which you divide both sides by 5. you get 2 and 2/5 or 12/5! hope that helps :)
Answer:
2, 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so for this you have to substitute. y=4 so you put a 4 where the y is. This becomes
4 - 3x = -2 We can already rule out (2,2) and (4,2) Why? Because the y is not a 4. So it’s gonna be either (0,4) or (2,4). Now, we have to find x. We have to isolate it. You do this by subtracting 4 from both sides.
4 - 4 - 3x = -2 - 4 Now Simplify
-3x = -6 Why -6? Because you can’t subtract a positive from a negative so it becomes -2 + -4. Since they are both negatives, you just add them together, then put the negative sign.
Now divide -3 from both sides. Which becomes
x = 2
Answer: 40%
Step-by-step explanation:
If you divide 8400 by 14000. You will see that $8400 is 60% (.60 in the calculator) you need to subtract that from 100 to find the discount. 100-60= 40
Answer:
16 : 28
Step-by-step explanation:
If 12 out of the 28 pupils are female, we can calculate the number of males by subtracting the number of females from the total number of pupils.
28 - 12 = 16
So, there are 16 males in the class. Now, we know that the ratio of males : total is 16 : 28.
I hope this helps! Have a lovely day!! :)
