You are told 2/9 = 16
Let total number of batteries = x
So you now have 2/9x = 16
To find x divide both sides by 2/9
X = 72 total batteries
This is because Andrea converted the Percentage wrong.
to Convert a Percent to a Decimal, she should have divided by 100
so 5 divided by 100 = 0.05 [not 0.5]
Andrea should have multiplied 300 by 0.05 instead to get the right answer
quickly finding 10% of a number means to simply move the decimal to the left one place
so 10% of 300 is 30
since 5% is half of 10%
half of 30 is 15
and so 5% of 300 is 15
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 6(2x + 4) = 3
3x - 12x + 24 = 3
-9x + 24 = 3
-9× = -21
x = 2.33
Answer:
Answer for #10:

Answer for #1:

Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve a simultaneous equation using the substitution method you have to:
Use one of the equation and substitute it into the other equation, in this case equation <em>B</em><em> </em>was substituted into equation <em>A</em><em>.</em>
<em>
</em>
Therefore since x = 1 - y, equation A would be:

Solve for c :
x⁴ + cx² + 100 = 0
cx² = -(x⁴ + 100)
c = - (x⁴ + 100)/x²
If x = 0, the right side is undefined and c would have no solution.
