Answer: <em>m = 7</em>
Step-by-step explanation: In this equation, since a -5 is being multiplied by <em>m</em>, in order to get <em>m</em> by itself, we must divide both sides of the equation by -5.
On the left side, our -5's cancel out and we are left with <em>m</em>. On the right side, -35 ÷ -5 gives us 7. So m = 7.
To check our answer, we plug 7 back in for <em>m</em> in the original equation and we get -5 (7) = -35 which is a true statement so we know our answer is correct.
Don't just do this problem in your head. It's extremely important to develop the habit of putting all your steps down on paper or digitally. It will really pay off for you down the line.
The number "4" is in the hundreds place. To the right is 7, and since it's greater than five it rounds up. So 16,473 to the nearest hundred is 16,500. Hope this helped!
Answer:
The percentage of overdue accounts are held by customers in the "risky credit" category is 62.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Customers in the "risky" category (25% of total accounts) allow their accounts to go overdue 50% of the time on average.
That means that on average, 12.5% of total accounts is overdue.
0.25*0.50 = 0.125
In the "good credit" category only 10% goes overdue. That means 7,5% of total accounts goes overdue in this category.
0.75*0.10=0.075
The total accounts that go overdue is 0.125+0.075 = 0.200.
The percentage of overdue accounts held by customers in the "risky credit" category is:
0.125/0.200 = 0.625 or 62.5%
