Hi! I'm happy to help!
Our town is composed of 2,000 people. Of those 2,000 people, 4/5 of them are middle class. The word 'of' usually means multiplication when it is in a word problem. So, we will multiply 2,000 by 4/5. When multiplying a whole number, we just multiply it by the numerator (top) and leave the denominator. (bottom)
2,000×4
8,000
8,000/5
Fractions are just a different way of putting division, so we can change this to a division problem:
8,000÷5=
1,600
1,600 of the people are middle class.
I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D
Answer:
(-2, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
consider the following equations: -x-y=1 y=x+3
For the lines to intersect, the values must be the same
-x-y=1
x + y = -1
y = -x - 1
Equating the y values
-x - 1 = x+ 3
-x-x = 3 + 1
-2x = 4
x = 4/-2
x = -2
Substitute x = -2 into y = x+3
y = -2 + 3
y = 1
Hence the required coordinate is (-2, 1)
The 3 in 350 is in the hundred place and in 403 the 3 is in the ones place
