Mathematics

Answer:

300

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{225}{x} = \frac{75}{100}$

Since 225 is 75% of a whole, write the proportion such that 225 corresponds to 75% and x, the number we're searching for, corresponds with 100%

Cross multiply to solve and divide by 75 to isolate x:

225 x 100 = 75x

22500 = 75x

300 = x

Without solving, NO SOLUTION describes which equation?

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The equation 'y = y + 1' represents NO SOLUTION.

Hence, option 'C' is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

6a = 9a

subtract 9a from both sides

6a - 9a = 9a - 9a

-3a = 0

divide both sides by -3

-3a / -3 = 0/-3

Simplify

a = 0

5x = 28

divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = 28/5

x = 28/5

y = y + 1

subtract y from both sides

y - y = y+1-y

0 = 1

These sides are not equal, so

NO SOLUTION!

y + 5 = 12

subtract 5 from both sides

y + 5 - 5 = 12 - 5

y = 7

Conclusion:

Therefore, the equation 'y = y + 1' represents NO SOLUTION.

Hence, option 'C' is true.
