An initial remark: when working with percents, it can be good to remember that the percent sign is simply another way of denoting hundredths. 40% and 40/100 are identical values; they just have different representations.

With that in mind, having knowledge of what taking 10% of something means is an excellent stepping stone when dealing with taking some multiple of 10%, like the 40% in this problem. When we take 10% of something, that's the same thing as saying we're taking 10/100 of it, which is again the same thing as saying we're taking 1/10 of it, or dividing it by 10. Let's use that fact as a jumping-off point for this problem.

10% of 920 cups is 920/10, or 92 cups. Since 40% = 10% x 4, all we need to do to obtain our answer is multiply that 92 by 4, obtaining an answer of 92 x 4 = 368 cups.

Customers can pick their own apples at well orchards. They pay $6 to enter the orchard and $2 per pound for the apples they pick

Anvisha [2.4K]

Y=6+2x

Since y equals the total cost, it will be on its own in the equation. 6 dollars is a set amount, meaning that no matter how many apples they pick it’ll stay the same. HOWEVER, the cost will change depending on how many pound of apples they get

Every pound of apples is equal to 2 dollars, and since x stands for pounds of apples, it’ll be ( ex: x = 2, so 2x = 2(2) = 4)

So the equation will be y = 6 + 2x

I hope this helps

Please solve the system of equations below thank you<br> explain if u can

ivanzaharov [21]

First let’s try to cancel out the x
5x + -5x = 0
Add the y and the numbers together
-3y + -2y = -5y
26 + -16 = 10
-5y = 10
y = -2
Use y=-2 in one of the equations
-3(-2) + 5x = 26
6 + 5x = 26
5x = 20
X = 4

So
Y= -2
X= 4

How are percent error and percent change similar

mihalych1998 [28]

Percent Change = New Value − Old Value|Old Value| × 100%

Example: There were 200 customers yesterday, and 240 today:

240 − 200|200|× 100% = 40200 × 100% = 20%

A 20% increase.

Percent Error = |Approximate Value − Exact Value||Exact Value| × 100%

Example: I thought 70 people would turn up to the concert, but in fact 80 did!

|70 − 80||80| × 100% = 1080 × 100% = 12.5%

I was in error by 12.5%

(Without using the absolute value, the error is −12.5%, meaning I under-estimated the value)

The difference between the two is that one states factual calculations and the other is a theoretical guess
