2r + 2s = 50
2r - s = 17
-----------subtract
3s = 33
s = 11
2r - s = 17
2r - 11 = 17
2r = 28
r = 14
so r = 14 and s = 11
answer is C. r = 14, s = 11
Hi,
81 is 37.5% of 216.
"1. We assume, that the number 37.5 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 37.5, so we can write it down as 100%=37.5.
4. We know, that x% equals 81 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=81.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=37.5
2) x%=81
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=37.5/81
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
7. Solution for 81 is what percent of 37.5
100%/x%=37.5/81
(100/x)*x=(37.5/81)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.46296296296296*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.46296296296296) to get x
100/0.46296296296296=x
216=x
x=216 "
Have a great day!
Answer:
a=12
Step-by-step explanation:
If you solve for x, you divide by (a-12) to isolate x on the left side:
x = (a+8)/(a-12)
If the numerator is 0 you will be dividing by zero, which invalidates the solution. This will happen for a=12.
