Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation is 14=x/100*70 or 14=(x%)*70, either one works

solve for x:

  1. 14=x/100*70
  2. 14/70=x/100 (Divide each side by 70)
  3. 1/5=x/100 (Simplify 14/70)
  4. 100/5=x (Multiply each side by 100 to isolate x)
  5. x=20 (Simplify 100/5)
  6. 20% (Rewrite as a percent)

hope this helps!!

Rashid [163]

Any linear function is of the form y=mx+b

Here m is slope and b is y intercept.

Slope is difference in y divided by different in x values .

In the question for 5 persons cost is $100 and for 10 persons cost is $162.50

So the points are (5,100) and (10,162.50)

Slope m=\frac{162.50-100}{10-5}=12.50

We can find the value of b by taking m=12.50 and (x,y)=(5,100)

Substitute these values in y=mx+b

100=12.50(5)+b

100=62.50+b

Subtracting 62.50 both sides

b=100-62.50

b=37.5

a) Put m=12.50 and b=37.50 to get the equation

y=12.50x+37.50

b)Rate of change is the m value or the slope of the function.

Initial value that is (5,100) gives us one of the points to find the rate of change.

The difference of two numbers is more than 12,and one of the numbers is 3
klio [65]
X+y = 12
x-y = 3
x = 3+y

Substitute it in 1st equation,
3+y+y=12
2y = 9
y = 4.5

Substitute it in 1st eq.,
x = 12-4.5 = 7.5

So, the two numbers are 7.5 & 4.5

Hope this helps!
