Raj and Aditi like to play chess against each other. Aditi has won 12 of the 20 games so far. They decide to play more games. How many more games will Aditi have to win to have a 70% winning record?

12 + x = 0.70(20 + x)
x = x equals StartFraction 20 Over 3 EndFraction is approximately 6.67. ≈ 6.67
She will have to win 7 more games to have a 70% winning record.

How many more games will Aditi have to win to have an 80% winning record?

The linear equation that models this is
.

Aditi would have to win
more games to have an 80% winning record.

The linear combination method is applied to a system of equations as shown. 4(.25x + .5y = 3.75) → x + 2y = 15 (4x – 8y = 12) → x – 2y = 3 2x = 18 what is the solution of the system of equations? (1,2) (3,9) (5,5) (9,3)

Axel follows these steps to divide 40 by 9: start with 40. 1. divide by 9 and write down the remainder. 2. write a zero after the remainder. 3. repeat steps 1 and 2 until you have a remainder of zero. examine his work, and then complete the statements below.

Martha has a deck of cards. she has lost some of the cards, and now the deck only contains nine spades, eleven diamonds, eight clubs, and twelve hearts. martha predicts that whenever she draws a card from the deck without looking, she will draw a club one-fifth of the time. which activity would best allow martha to test her prediction? a. randomly draw a card from the box and see if it is a club. b. randomly draw a card. then, continue to draw another card until all eight clubs are drawn. c. randomly draw and replace a card 120 times. then, observe how close to 30 times a club is drawn. d. randomly draw and replace a card 100 times. then, observe how close to 20 times a club is drawn.
