While on a train trip, marsha noticed that there were 35 people in her train car. after the next stop, there were only 21 people in her car. if p represents the percent decrease in the number of people in marsha’s train car, what is p?

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a percent, divide the part by the total and multiply by 100.

To find the part, subtract 21 from 35 to find the people who left.

35 - 21 = 14

(14/35)*100 = p

.4 *100 = p

40 =p

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!

answer: procent 54 wynosi 33,33%
