Answer:

15/80 = x/1600

multiply both sides of this equation by 1600 to get:

1600 * 15/80 = 1600 * x/1600

80 goes into 1600 20 times.

1600 goes into 1600 1 time.

equation becomes:

20 * 15 = x

solve for x to get x = 300.

300 students will most likely buy a tamale based on the survey

A triangle with an area of 37 units? is dilated by a scale factor of . Find the area of
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

<u>58 units</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

I decided that one side is 37 units and another is 2 units, since that would make the area 37 units. (you can also use 74 units and 1 unit)

Then I multiplied 37 by 5/4, which equals a new length of 46.25 units, and I also multiplied 2 by 5/4, which equals a new length of 2.5 units.

Finally, I solve for the area of the triangle:

1/2(46.25 x 2.5) ≈ <u>58 units</u> (rounded to the nearest whole number)

A. 37<br> B. 38<br> C. 39<br> D. 40
Dvinal [7]

Hello ^w^

I believe the answer you are looking for is A

I found this answer by adding up the lengths of all the sides.

S -> T = 8

S -> R = 7

Q -> R = 6

P -> Q = 6

P -> T = 10

10 + 6 + 6 + 7 + 8 ->  37

A -> 37

If I am incorrect, please inform me.

Have a good day!

A item on sale costs 80% of the original price.if the original price was $15 what is the sale price?
Effectus [21]

Answer:

$3

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price - Discounted price

= $15 - ($15 × 80%)

= $15 - ($15 × 80/100)

= $15 - ($1200/100)

= $15 - $12

= <u>$</u><u>3</u>

So, the sale price is $3

How do I solve this math problem
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Cross Multiply.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the denominator (3) of one side and the numerator (n).

Then, multiply the numerator (2) of on side and the denominator (4) of the other.

3n = 8

You divide both sides by 3 to have n be by itself, equaling ~2.6 or 8/3.

Express 19.79 as a mixed number.
sergey [27]
Write the decimal number as a fraction
(over 1)
19.79 = 19.79 / 1

Multiplying by 1 to eliminate 2 decimal places
we multiply top and bottom by 2 10's

Numerator = 19.79 × 10 × 10 = 1979

Denominator  = 1 × 10 × 10 = 100

Numerator / Denominator = 1979 / 100

Simplifying our fraction

= 1979/100

= 1979/100

= 19  79/100
