<span>Percentage problems are simple division problems. Here, what percentage of x is y means the answer is y divided by x (times 100). Let's apply it to this question.
Divide 72.6 by 88, 72.6/88. So the answer would be 0.825 then multiply it to 100 to make it a whole. The answer would 82.5%. I hope this helps you with your problem</span>
Answer:
(x, y) = (5, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator provides a quick and easy way to find the solution.
_____
There are several other ways to solve these equations. Or you can estimate where the answer might be using logic like this:
The intercepts of the first equation are ...
- x-intercept = 26/4 = 6 1/2
- y-intercept = -26/3 = -8 2/3
So the graph of it will form a triangle with the axes in the 4th quadrant.
The intercepts of the second equation are ...
- x-intercept = 11/3 = 3 2/3
- y-intercept = 11/2 = 5 1/2
So the graph of it will form a triangle with the axes in the 1st quadrant. The x-intercept of this one is less than the x-intercept of the first equation, so the two lines must cross in the 4th quadrant.
The only 4th-quadrant answer choice is (5, -2).
Answer:
They will be picked up at 2
yards above sea level
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us consider sea level as reference and positions above sea level as positive and below sea level as negative.
With respect to this reference,
the position of top most point is +17
yards
and the position of lower most point is -13
yards
⇒ The position of midpoint is 
= +2 
∴ <u>They will be picked up at 2
yards above sea level</u>
hey there
the answer is
14x + 6 = 5x + -3
6 + 14x = 5x + -5
6 + 14x = -3 + 5x
6 + 14x + -5x = -3 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 14x + -5x = 9x
6 + 9x = -3 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0
6 + 9x = -3 + 0
6 + 9x = -3
6 + -6 + 9x = -3 + -6
Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + 9x = -3 + -6
9x = -3 + -6
Combine like terms: -3 + -6 = -9
9x = -9
Divide each side by '9'.
x = -1
Simplifying
x = -1
thank you
