For this problem, I'd use cross-multiplication.
9/12 = x/8.
When cross multiplying, multiply 12*x and 9*8. This leads to a new equation:
12x = 72.
Then you solve as an algebra problem.
*Divide 12 on both sides*
x = 6.
Answer:
b = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
8*21 then 168/6 = 28
Answer: 21600
216 as a percentage of certain number x can be calculated by dividing 216 by x, and multiplying the result by 100. For example, 216 as a percentage of 10 = (216 / 10) x 100% = 2160%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The statement is correct
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The equation of a exponential growth function is equal to

where
y is the area covered by the plant in percentage
x is the time in years since 2000
r is the rate of change
a is the initial value
In this problem we have


substitute the values


In the year 2005

substitute the value of x in the exponential function

48.6% is about 50%
therefore
The statement is correct
4¾=19/4 and 11⅞=95/8.
Width=area/length=95/8÷19/4=95/8×4/19=5/2=2½ft.
