y = x − 1
Explain how you will solve the pair of equations by substitution. Show all the steps and write the solution in (x, y) form.
The Solution for 33.52 is 419% of 8.
Since we know that percent shows per 100 (since cent means 100), thus we will first divide the whole part into 100 parts and then multiply it with b so that we collect b items per 100 items(that is exactly what b percent means).
100% / x% = 8 /33.52
(100/x)*x =(8/33.52)*x
Here we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.238663484487x
Now we divide both sides of the equation by (0.238663484487) to get x
100/0.238663484487=x
419=x
x=419
now we have, 33.52 is 419% of 8
