How to calculate percentage of a number. Use the percentage formula: P% * X = Y
Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: P% * X = Y.
P is 10%, X is 150, so the equation is 10% * 150 = Y.
Convert 10% to a decimal by removing the percent sign and dividing by 100: 10/100 = 0.10.
Answer:
1/2x = 16
x = 32
Step-by-step explanation:

2(10 + -13x) = -34x + 60
(10 * 2 + -13x * 2) = -34x + 60
(20 + -26x) = -34x + 60
Reorder the terms:
20 + -26x = 60 + -34x
Solving
20 + -26x = 60 + -34x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '34x' to each side of the equation.
20 + -26x + 34x = 60 + -34x + 34x
Combine like terms: -26x + 34x = 8x
20 + 8x = 60 + -34x + 34x
Combine like terms: -34x + 34x = 0
20 + 8x = 60 + 0
20 + 8x = 60
Add '-20' to each side of the equation.
20 + -20 + 8x = 60 + -20
Combine like terms: 20 + -20 = 0
0 + 8x = 60 + -20
8x = 60 + -20
Combine like terms: 60 + -20 = 40
8x = 40
Divide each side by '8'.
x = 5

x = 5</span>
Is it a rhombus or is it just a parallelogram?
