To solve this answer, you are trying to find 55% of 600, because that is the number of people who chose plastic bag.
55% can be re-written as 55/100 OR 0.55 since percentages are always out of 100.
So, we do 0.55*600, which gives us 330. 330 people carry plastic bags.

Answer:
x=2, y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + y = 5
5x − 2y = 8.
Multiply the first equation by 2
2( 2x + y) = 5*2
4x +2y = 10
Add this to the 2nd equation to eliminate y
4x+2y = 10
5x -2y = 8
--------------------
9x = 18
Divide by 9
9x/9 = 18/9
x = 2
Now find y
2x+y = 5
2(2)+y = 5
4+y = 5
Subtract 4 from each side
y = 5-4
y =1
