It would be 31+t.
Unless there's more to this question.
4a + 3 = 11...subtract 3 from both sides
4a + 3 - 3 = 11 - 3...simplify
4a = 8 ....divide both sides by 4
(4/4)a = 8/4...simplify
1a, or just a = 2 <==
Let x be the yearly salary of an architect. Then the yearly salary of a lawyer is 2x-20000.
We can build an equation now! x+(2x-20000)=211000, because the yearly salary of an architect plus the yearly salary of a lawyer is 211000.
We combine like terms to get 3x-20000=211000.
We add 20000 to both sides to get 3x=231000.
We divide both sides by 3 to get x=77000, so the average yearly salary of a lawyer is 77000.
Then, the average yearly salary of an architect is 2(77000)-20000=154000-20000=134000, so the average yearly salary of an architect is 134000.
To figure this out, you need to figure out what percentage 68 is of 85.
1. Divide 68 by 85 (Divide the % correct by the total number of questions)
2. 68/85 is .8, which is 80%
