Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

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

solve for x:

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

hope this helps!!

Look at the formula for the volume of a cylinder below.

scZoUnD [109]

$h = V / ( \pi r^2)$

Okay, so we already have the volume equation for a cylinder here.
$V = \pi r^2 h$
Since we need to find the height(h), we need to basically isolate it in the equation. To do that we just have to divide both sides by (pi * r^2), where we end up with:
$V / (\pi r^2) = h(\pi r^2) / (\pi r^2)$
then
$V / ( \pi r^2) = h$
$h = V / ( \pi r^2)$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a parallelogram has sides that are parallel to the opposite side. This means that y + 7 is going to be parallel to 20.

Two opposing sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal

You know that the length of both of the sides is equivalent because the other set of opposing lines is also parallel (you can think of it as cutting off the line segment of y+7 and 20 at the same length. )

this means that we can set up the equation to find y as:

y + 7 = 20

then, you can proceed to find y by isolating it:

y + 7 = 20 ; so therefore

y + 7 = 20

- 7 -7

y = 13

So, the value of y is 13
