Alocal university accepted 2,300 students out of 4,500 applicants for admission. what was the acceptance rate, expressed as a percent?

2300 / 4500 = 0.5111

so a 51.11 % acceptance round off to 51% if needed

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

1st step: isolate x.

24 - 3x = -27

-24         -24

-3x   =   -51

2nd step: divide.

-3x     =   -51

  3             3

  x       =     17

hope this
