I think z is ether 8 or -3. hope this helps <span />
Hi there! So Andy's total lunch bill was $20 and the drink was 15% of the bill. Percents are parts of 100 and 100 - 15 is 85. That means 85% of the total bill was Andy's food cost. Let's multiply 20 by 85% ti get the cost of his food. 20 * 85% (0.85) is 17. Andy's food costed $17. Here are the answers broken down to be easier to read.
Percent of Andy's bill with food: 85%
Cost of food: $17
<span>draw out a triangle and then create three boxes inside by drawing a T. In each of the boxes you've created you need to put one of the letters from the equation. The equation you currently have is F= m*a. To rearrange this equation put the m and the a into the bottom boxes and the F above. Because there is a vertical line between the m and the a, this means you times them. If there is a horizonal line between two letters you divide them. So to find a, you must divide F by m. </span>
Y=6x, 2x+3y=-20
Substitution means just plugging in another equation equal to a single variable in order to solve for the other variable, and then the first. In this case, the equation being plugged in is y=6x, so 6x will be put in place of y in the equation 2x+3y=-20.
2x+3(6x)=-20
2x+18x=-20
20x=-20
x=-1
And then x=-1 can be plugged into the original equation to find y. (And, if you wish, into the y= equation to check it.)
2(-1)+3y=-20
-2+3y=-20
3y=-20+2
3y=-18
y=-6
And to check it, we plug the two into the original y= equation.
y=6x
-6=6(-1)
-6=-6
They are equal, so both check out.
x=-1, y=-6
