Answer:

Dakota has 94 books, while Darius has 144.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Darius and Dakota are roommates, and together they have 238 books, if Darius has 50 more books than Dakota, to determine how many books does Dakota have the following calculation must be performed:

Dakota = X

Darius = X + 50

X + X + 50 = 238

2X + 50 = 238

2X = 238 - 50

X = 188/2

X = 94

Therefore, Dakota has 94 books, while Darius has 144.

What is the answer to this question can you please answer right
Arada [10]
On Monday she made 50 throws.
On Tuesday she made 56 throws.

a) The increase is just how much more she made the next day.
56 - 50 = 6
She had an increase of 6 free throws.

b) To find the percent increase, all you do is divide the two numbers.
56/50 = 1.12
To change that into a percentage, either multiply it by 100 or move the decimal point two places to the right.
1.12 × 100 = 112
She had a 112% increase in her free throws.

The answer is:
D. 6; 112%
