Answer:

a=-36

Step-by-step explanation:

1/6(a+12)=-4

1) Distribute <u>1/6</u> to a and 12:

1/6a+2=-4

2) Subtract 2 from both sides:

1/6a=-6

3) Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 1/6: (6/1)

a=-36

Let me know if you have any confusion on how I reached the solution :)

If we take 12450 to be the 100%, what is 622.50 off of it in percentage then?  let's check.

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}&#10;amount&\%\\&#10;\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\&#10;12450&100\\&#10;622.50&p&#10;\end{array}\implies \cfrac{12450}{622.50}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies p=\cfrac{622.50\cdot 100}{12450}

SOMEONE PLZZZZZZ HELP
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

<u><em>x = 3</em></u>

<u><em>angle B = 70 degree</em></u>

<u><em>angle C = 50 degree</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>angle B + angle C = angle CDA ( exterior angle property)</em>

(22x+4) + (15x +5) = 120

22x + 15x + 4 + 5 = 120

37x + 9 = 120

37x = 120- 9

37x = 111

x = \frac{111}{37}

x = 3

angle B = 22x + 4

            = 22(3) +4

            = 66 +4

angle B = 70 degree

angle C = 15x+5

             = 15( 3) + 5

             = 45 + 5

angle C = 50 degree

<em>Hope this helps.</em>
