Answer:

I think the answer is 22% but I am not sure

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 50 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with X

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that 100%=50

Step 4: In the same vein, x%=11.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

100%=50(1).

X%=11(2).

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the left hand side of both equations have the same unit; we have

100% / X% = 11 / 50

X = 22%

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

X% / 100% = 11 / 50

Therefore, 11 is 22% of 50.

What is the perimeter of the shape?

Serhud [2]

Answer:

20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the side lengths you've written are the only side lengths of the shape, meaning it would be a trapezoid, all you do is add them up together.

3 + 5 + 5 + 7 = 20

Solve the system of elimination -2x+2y+3z=0 -2x-y+z=-3 2x+3y+3z=5

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

x = 1 , y = 1 and z = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+2y+3z=0 ------(1)

-2x-y+z=-3 --------(2)

2x+3y+3z=5 ---------(3)

<u>To find the values of x,y and z</u>

(3) - (2)⇒ 2y + 4z = 2

y + 2z = 1 --------(4)

(1) - (2)⇒ 3y +2z =3 ---(5)

(5) - (4)⇒ 2y = 2

y = 1

Substituting the value of y in (4) we get z =0

Substituting the value of y and z in (1) we get x = 1

Therefore x = 1 , y = 1 and z = 0

QUESTION 1

The given inequality is

$y\leq x-3$ and $y\geq -x-2$ .

If (3,-2) is a solution; then it must satisfy both inequalities.

We put x=3 and y=-2 in to both inequalities.

$-2\leq 3-3$ and $-2\geq -3-2$ .

$-2\leq 0$ :True and $-2\geq -5$ :True

Both inequalities are satisfied, hence (3,-2) is a solution to the given system of inequality.

QUESTION 2

The given inequality is

$y\:>\:-3x+3$ and $y\:>\: x+2$ .

If (1,4) is a solution; then it must satisfy both inequalities.

We put x=1 and y=4 in to both inequalities.

$4\:>\:-3(1)+3$ and $4\:>\: 1+2$ .

$4\:>\:0$ :True and $4\:>\: 3$ :True

Both inequalities are satisfied, hence (1,4) is a solution to the given system of inequality.

Ans: True

QUESTION 3

The given inequality is

$y\leq 3x-6$ and $y\:>\: -4x+2$ .

If (0,-2) is a solution; then it must satisfy both inequalities.

We put x=0 and y=-2 in to both inequalities.

$-2\leq 3(0)-6$ and $-2\:>\: -4(0)+2$ .

$-2\leq -6$ :False and $-2\:>\:2$ :False

Both inequalities are not satisfied, hence (0,-2) is a solution to the given system of inequality.

Ans:False

QUESTION 4

The given inequality is

$2x-y\:$ and $x+y\:>\:-1$ .

If (0,3) is a solution; then it must satisfy both inequalities.

We put x=0 and y=3 in to both inequalities.

$2(0)-3\:$ and $0+3\:>\:-1$ .

$-3\:$ :True and $3\:>\:-1$ : True

Both inequalities are satisfied, hence (0,3) is a solution to the given system of inequality.

Ans:True

QUESTION 5

The given system of inequality is

$y\:>\:2x-3$ and $y\:$ .

If (-3,0) is a solution; then it must satisfy both inequalities.

We put x=-3 and y=0 in to both inequalities.

$0\:>\:2(-3)-3$ and $0\:$ .

$0\:>\:-9$ ;True and $0\:$ :True

Both inequalities are satisfied, hence (-3,0) is a solution to the given system of inequality.

Ans:True
