With what in regard? For fractions, percentage is relative to the amount “full”. Think or a bottle of water, if it’s 50% full, it’s got 1/2 (50/100) filled with water. Simplifying is the process of taking a big fraction, say, 12/36, and finding the similarity to reduce it. 12 and 36 are both even, so let’s try to divide it by 2. 12/2 is 6, and 36/2 is 18. 6/18. However this is simplified it is not in simplest form, so we can divide It again. 6/2 is 3, and 18/2 9. 3/9 can be reduced by 3, making 1/3. 1/3 is the simplest form.
Y=2x
y is the amount of money made from the sold books
x is the number of books that are sold (it is x because you don't know how many will be sold, so you have to account for all possibilities)
2x is because every book is sold for 2 dollars, so that mean x is multiplied by 2 to get y
P> 8/3 hope that helps :)
Answer:
8, 82
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = angle measure
y = complement
y = x+74
Complements add to 90
x+y = 90
Substitute y = x+74 into the equation
x+ x+74 = 90
Combine like terms
2x+74 = 90
Subtract 74 from each side
2x+74-74 = 90-74
2x = 16
Divide by 2
2x/2 = 16/2
x=8
The first angle is 8
8+74 = 82
The other angle is 82
