Answer:
26.4
Step-by-step explanation:
With cross multiplication you can find that they are the same. In both equations, x would be 100.
9) Because the total number of pencils is 180 and you will use them up in 30 days, the equation will have to equal 0 total pencils when 30 is substituted in for the time factor, or x. This already takes our choice 3 because it doesn’t meet this criteria.
The answer to how many pencils in 20 days could be answered by plugging in 20 for x. Choice 4 cannot work because it results in a negative number of pencils. Choices 1 and 2 use the same equation, so by plugging in 20 it is clear choice 2 is the correct answer.
10) A line parallel to the go en equation would have the same slope, -3, which means choices 1 and 4 are out. Plug in (-2,5) into both choices 2 and 3. Plugging -2 into x in choice 2 gives -5, and in choice 3 gives 5 for the y value. Therefore choice 3 is correct.

The answer is: [C]: "30%" .

Explanation:
_____________________________________________________
Note that: "%" ; or "percent" means "out of 100" ; or "divided by 100" .
______________________________________________________
Method 1)
15/50 = ?/ 100 ;
Look at the denominators:
50 * (what value?) = 100 ? ; → "100 ÷ 50 = 2" ;
→ 50 * 2 = 100 ;
So: "15/50 = (15*2)/(50*2) = "30/100" ; which is "30%" .
___________________________________________
Method 2:
___________________________________________
"15/50" = (15÷5) / (50÷5) = 3/10 ;
3/10 = (3*10) / (10*10) = 30/100 ; which is: "30%" .
__________________________________________
Method 3: (slight variation of "Method 2" above):
___________________________________________
"15/50" = (15÷5) / (50÷5) = 3/10 ;
3/10 = 0.3 = 0.30 = (0.30 * 100) % = " 30% " .
