My teacher always taught me to set these problems up like a proportion

is / of = % / 100

24/ x = 16 / 100

16x = 2,400

Divide 2,400 by 16 and you get 150.

150 is the correct answer.

Which of the following ordered pairs is a solution of the given system of

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

x=-14 and y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

hello

4x + 8y = 8 <=> divide by 4 both parts

(1) x + 2y = 4

(2) x + 3y = 13

(2) - (1) gives

x + 3y -x - 2y = 13 - 4 = 9

<=> y = 9

we replace in (1) x + 2*9 = 4

<=> x = 4 - 18 = -14

so x = -14

Whats the improper fraction for 3 4/17

murzikaleks [220]

Answer: 55/17

Step-by-step explanation: To write a mixed number as an improper fraction, first multiply the denominator by the whole number, then add the numerator.

So here we multiply the denominator (17) by the whole number (3), then we add the numerator which is 4.

Finally, we put our new number over our old denominator and we have our answer 55/17.

Therefore, 3 and 4/17 can be rewritten as the improper fraction 55/17.
