Answer:

a=55

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is asking for you to find the whole (a), given a part (11). This can be done through multiplication. 20% is 1/5 of 100%. This means to find the whole number, you should multiply the part by 5. 11*5=55. So, a must equal 55.

We can check this answer by working backward. Do this by finding 20% of 55, and checking to see if it is 11. To find a percentage of a number, multiply that number by the percent in decimal form. So, 20% of 55 is equal to 0.2*55, which is 11. Therefore, the answer is correct.

Which is the solution set of 7y +1&gt; 8y- 9?
fomenos

Answer:

y < 10 or (10, -∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

7y + 1 > 8y - 9

Simply get the y's on the right by subtracting 7y from both sides:

1 > y - 9

then adding 9 to both sides:

y < 10

or in interval notation:

(10, -∞)
