Martha opens a bag of skittles. The bag contains 8 red, 5 yellow, 6 green,4 purple, and 2 orange. What percent of the skittles in the bag are green?

24%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would need to add up the total amount of skittles in the bag.

8+5+6+4+2=25 skittles in total.

We already know that 6 of these skittles are green. Therefore, we could say that 6 out of 25 skittles are green (or as a fraction, 6/25).

6/25 skittles are green. You can now easily convert this fraction into a decimal by doing 6 divided by 25 (6/25 = 0.24)

To convert this decimal into a percentage, simply multiply by 100.

0.24 x 100 = 24%

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
