4x - 2y = -20
4x - 2(-3x) = -20
4x - -6x = -20
4x + 6x = -20
10x = -20
-20 divided by 10
x = -2

Malachai is doing a 20 miles bike ride. He has cycled 11 miles so far. What percentage of the the total distance has he cycled

Anestetic [448]

11 miles / 20 miles =.55
.55 x 100 = 55%
11/20 is the proportion and you multiply by 100 to gey a percent
another way to solve is
11/20 x 5/5 = 55/100 = 55%
you multiply by 5/5 because it is equal to one and it makes the denominator equal to 100 it also follows the rule that whatever you do to the top you must do with the bottom

You have 8 times as many dimes as nickels. You have 18 dimes

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

$1.70

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of nickels be $x$ .

Thus, by the problem statement, the number of dimes is [/tex] 8 \cdot x = 8x. [/tex]

Therefore, there are $8x + x = 9$ coins in total. To find what $x$ is, we need to solve the equation $9x = 18.$ This can be done by dividing both sides by $9$ which gives $x=2$ . Plugging these values in tells us that there are $2$ nickels and $16$ dimes. (Test it out!) Thus, the nickels are worth $2 \cdot 5 = 10$ cents and the dimes are worth $16 \cdot 10 = 160$ cents, so in all, you have $10 + 160 = 170$ cents which is $1.70.
