The r% of a quantity x is computed by dividing x in 100 parts, and considering r of such parts. So, the r% of the male is
and similarly, the r% of female is
The number of males decreased by this quantity, so now it is
and the number of female increased by this quantity, so now it is
we know that these two new counts are the same number, so we can build and solve the equality
Subtract 20 and add 0.3r from both sides:
Divide both sides by 0.5 to solve for r:
Let's check the answer
The 20% of 30 is 
, while the 20% of 20 is 4. So, we are stating that 
which is true because both expressions evaluate to 24.
Answer:
equation 1
y = -2x
equation 2
y = x-3
Solution to both
(1,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to get the equations of both lines
General form is;
y = mx + c
where m is slope and c is the y-intercept
Table 1
since we have a point 0,0; the y-intercept here is zero
Let us get the slope. We can do this by selecting any two points
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (2-10)/(-1+5) = -8/4 = -2
So the equation of the first line is;
y = -2x
Table 2
we get the slope
m = (4+2)/(7-1) = 6/6 = 1
The partial equation is;
y = x + c
To get c, we select any two point and substitute
4 = 7 + c
c = 4-7
c = -3
So the equation is;
y = x-3
To get the solution to both systems, we equate the y
-2x = x - 3
-2x-x = -3
-3x = -3
x = -3/-3
x = 1
To get y, we substitute;
recall; y = -2x
y = -2(1)
y = -2
Solution to the system is;
(1,-2)
The answer is A the first choice
Your answer would be x-4=17.
4 less than (#) is 17.
That number would be 21.
21-4=17
Hope that helps
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Inverse variation is of the form
xy = k where k is a constant
x=4 and y = 32
4*32 = k
128 = k
xy = 128
Let x = 8
8y = 128
Divide each side by 8
8y/8 = 128/8
y =16
