The same number of people live on the islands Beautiful Sunrise and Gorgeous

aev [14]

Using the percentage concept, it is found that 75% of the population of Gorgeous Sunset is on Beautiful Sunrise now.

<h3>What is a percentage?</h3>

The percentage of an amount a over a total amount b is given by a multiplied by 100% and divided by b, that is:

$P = \frac{a}{b} \times 100\%$

In this problem, we have that:

We consider that the population of both Beautiful Sunrise and Gorgeous Sunset islands is of x.

There is a fiesta at Beautiful Sunrise, and a number a of people from Gorgeous Sunset are coming, hence, there will be x + a people at Beautiful Sunrise and x - a people t Gorgeous Sunset.

The percentage of people from Gorgeous Sunset is on Beautiful Sunrise now is:

$P = \frac{a}{x} \times 100\%$

Now the number of people on Beautiful Sunrise is seven times the number of people on Gorgeous Sunset, hence:

$\frac{x + a}{x - a} = 7$

We can find a <u>as a function of x</u> to find the percentage:

$\frac{x + a}{x - a} = 7$

$7(x - a) = x + a$

$7x - 7a = x + a$

$8a = 6x$

$a = \frac{3x}{4}$

Then, the percentage is:

$P = \frac{a}{x} \times 100\%$

$P = \frac{\frac{3x}{4}}{x} \times 100\%$

$P = \frac{3}{4} \times 100\%$

$P = 75\%$

75% of the population of Gorgeous Sunset is on Beautiful Sunrise now.

5(x-7) = 6(x+2)<br>please help ... I got 11x = -23??

eimsori [14]

Answer:

$x = -47$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Use the distributive property

5 ( x - 7 ) = 6 ( x + 2 ) → 5x - 35 = 6x + 12

2. Subtract 5x from both sides of the equation

5x - 5x -35 = 6x - 5x + 12 → -35 = x + 12

3. Subtract 12 from both sides

-35 - 12 = x + 12 - 12 → -47 = x

4. So, the answer is

$x = -47$
