Hi there! 

Your question: 

8.5 + 49(1-2.5k)=24.5

My answer: 

8.5 + 4(1-2.5k) = 24.5 >>>>>>> first, you have to distribute

8.5 + 4 - 10k = 24.5 >>>>>>>> now, we are going to combine like terms.

12.5 - 10k = 24.5 >>>>>> now, we are going to subtract 12.5 on both sides 

-10k = 12 >>>>>>>>> finally, divide -10 on both sides

k = -1.2


Hope this helps you!

Your Problem:
8.5+4(1-2.5k)=24.5
1st step: subtract 8.5 from both sides
4(1-2.5k)=24.5-8.5
4(1-2.5k)=16
2nd step: Divide both sides by 4
(1-2.5k)=16/4
(1-2.5k)=4
3rd step: Opening up the parentheses
1-2.5k=4
4th step: Subtract 1 from both sides
-2.5k=4-1
-2.5k=3
4ht step: divide both sides by -2.5
k=-1.2

When the chef turned the new freezer on, the temperature on the internal thermometer was 2 c .
Elan Coil [88]

-13 c I think.  It is this way because if it went down 15, then you subtract 2-15.  2-2 = 0, and then 0-13= -13 c.  Hope this helps

Mindy's dog, Rex, weighed 80 pounds a year ago. Now he weighs 92 pounds. What is the percent increase in his weight?
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent increase, use the equation:

percent of increase=<u>amount of increase</u>

                                     original amount

The amount of increase is 92-80 = 12.  The original amount of 80; this gives us

12/80 = 0.15 = 15%
