Answer:103.2

Step-by-step explanation:

lets say that 120 is 100%

We next represent the value we seek with “x”

From step 1, it follows that 100%= 120

x%= 86%

This gives us a pair of simple equations:

100%=120

x%= 86

By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS (left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

100%/x% = 120/86

Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

x%/100% = 86/120

x= 71.67

Solve (x+y) if x=-1/2 and y=-3

bixtya [17]

Answer:

$-3\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve

$(x+y)$

For x=-1/2 and y=-3

substitute the value of x and the value of y in the expression above

$x+y=(-\frac{1}{2})+(-3)$

Remember that

$(+1)(-1)=-1$

$x+y=-\frac{1}{2}-3=\frac{-1-6}{2}=-\frac{7}{2}$

Convert to mixed number

$-\frac{7}{2}=-\frac{6}{2}-\frac{1}{2}=-3\frac{1}{2}$
