Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
Shanice =88
If greg won x pieces of gum, and 88 was 4 more than twice as many as Greg
2x+4=88
2x=84
x=42
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5)
DG= 60 (whole)
DO= 4x-3 (Part)
OG= 2x+ 21 (Part)
4x-3+ 2x+21= 60
6x+18=60
6x=42
x=7
Using this we can solve for DO and DG
DO= 4*7-3
DO= 25
DG= 2*7+21
DG= 14+ 21= 35
6)
TB is whole
TU is part
UB is part
5x= 4x-1+2x-1
5x=6x-2
x=2
UB= 2*2-1= 4-1= 3
TU= 4*2-1= 8-1= 7
Answer:
The correct option is C
Step-by-step explanation:
The organizers of a fair projected a 25 percent increase in attendance this year over that of last year
Let x = the attendance for last year
The projected attendance for this year would be last year's attendance + 25% of last year's attendance. This means
Projected attendance for this year
= x + 25/100 × x
= x + 0.25x = 1.25x
But attendance for this year actually decreased by 20 percent.
This means the actual attendance for this year would be
attendance for last year - 20% of attendance for last year. This means
Actual attendance for this year is
x - 20/100 × x
= x - 0.2x = 0.8x
percentage of the projected attendance that was the actual attendance would be
0.8x / 1.25x × 100 = 0.64 × 100
= 64%
The correct option is C
The answer is 25. Hope it helps
