Answer:

35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent increase is (new number - old number) / old number

(162 - 120) / 120 = 42 / 120 = 0.35 = 35%

Jonathan’s class has 30 boys. Of the students in his class, 60% are girls. How many girls are in Jonathan’s class?
raketka [301]

Answer:

45 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Remark
  • There are only 2 choices for gender. So if the class is 60% girls, the there must be 100 - 60 = 40% for the boys.
  • But we are told that the boys are 30 in number.
  • Let x = the total number of students.

Solution

  • 40/100 * x = 30              Change the % to a decimal
  • 0.4 x = 30                       Divide both sides by 0.4
  • 0.4 x / 0.4 = 30 / 0.4      Do the division
  • x = 30/0.4
  • x = 75 students in total

Formula

Total of Boys and Girls = Number of boys + number of girls.

Givens

  • Total = 75
  • Number of boys = 30

Solution II

  • 75 = x + 30                 Subtract 30 from each side
  • 75 - 30 = x +30 - 30
  • 45 = x
  • There are 45 girls in the class.

Which of these is an equivalent expression for 2-3 that uses positive exponents?
dem82 [27]

Answer:

The answer is C. 

In order to make an exponent positive, you just switch it to the opposite part of the fraction. So, for example, 

x^-3= 1/x^3

or 

1/x^-5 = x^5/1

You just switch it to the opposite part of the fraction, and make the exponent positive.

What is it written in simplest form
gayaneshka [121]
6.5(2r - s) + 3.7r - 1.25s.....first we distribute the 6.5 thru the parenthesis
13r - 6.5s + 3.7r - 1.25s....now we combine like terms
(13r + 3.7r) = 16.7r
(-6.5s - 1.25s) = -7.75
leaving us with : 16.7r - 7.75s <==
