Mary spent $15. If this was 20% of her earrings, how much money did she earned?

Mathematics

Hi, I'm happy to help!

First off, we need to arrange an equation for what is being asked. 15 is 20% of her earnings and we don't know her total earnings.

15=20%×__

We can write this percentage as

15=0.2×__

We then change the equation to do the inverse operation, which is division, this makes it easier to solve.

15÷0.2=__

Now, we solve

15÷0.2=75

<u>She earned $75</u>

<u></u>

I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D

How to solve a system of equations by graphing
yarga [219]
You first graph both equations.
Once that is done find the point of intersection (where the equations cross).
The point where they meet up (intersect) will be your solution.

How do I solve this equation to find x and y
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

(x,y) = (6/5, 38)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = y right?

so, you just substitute both of those equations

26+10x = 44-5x

26 -44 = -5x -10x

x = 6/5

then substitute x into ANY of these two equations

let's say we want the second one

y = 44 - 5 × 6/5

y = 38

I'm not sure but I think that first number there might be a 20 and not a 26. If that's true then, solving the same way you'd have

(x,y) = (8/5, 36)
