Answer:
11 cats
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Jane's initial = 23
My initial = 2
Jane gives out 5 cats to me ;
Jane's new = 23 - 5 = 18
My new = 2 + 5 = 7
Number of cats Jane has than me :
Jane's new - My new
18 - 7 = 11 cats
Second question is incomplete. We aren't told what to calculate.
33=17x-18 add 18 both sides
51=17x. divide 17 both sides
3 = x
Answer:
y(y-2)(y+10)
Step-by-step explanation:
when factoring you work with similar concepts and get rid of what you can to make the equation simipler and get your answer like you take a y out of the equation to get y^2 and then reduce and then solve by grouping.
Multiply 9 books by 55% by doing
9 x .55 = 4.95
We can't have 4.95 books, though so it rounds down to 4 because you can't just add another .05.
