You can solve this by setting up a proportion. You can put the number of items correct over the total number. and substitute the unknown number with x.

=

Cross-multiply
3400 = 100x Divide both sides by 100
34 = x
40 - 34 = 6

Answer:
Kyle invested 5,800 at 10% and 5,400 at 7%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the amount Kyle invests in the 10% account.
0.1x + 0.07(11200 - x) = 958
0.1x + 784 - 0.07x = 958
0.03x = 174
x = 5800
What is that I have never seen a problem like that. Is this a actual question or are you playing around...‼️
Answer:
x = -√3 /2
y = ½
Step-by-step explanation:
x = cos 150°= -√3 /2
y = sin 150° = ½
Answer:
(1, -5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve the system by setting the equations equal to each other, and solving for x:
-7x + 2 = 9x - 14
2 = 16x - 14
16 = 16x
1 = x
So, the x coordinate of the solution will be 1.
Plug in 1 as x into one of the equations, and solve for y
y = -7x + 2
y = -7(1) + 2
y = -7 + 2
y = -5
So, the y coordinate is -5.
The ordered pair solution is (1, -5)
