Elanso [62]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

11.4

20/100 = x/57

Step-by-step explanation:

It is perhaps simplest just to translate the given English sentence into a mathematical sentence.

... 20% ... ... of ... 57 ... is ... what number

... 20/100 ... × ... 57 .... = ... what number . . . . . . . . translation to math sentence

... 11.4 = what number . . . . . . . . carry out the multiplication

_____

If you're asked to write this as a proportion, you can write it like this:

\dfrac{20}{100}=\dfrac{\text{what number}}{57}

You can solve this proportion by multiplying by 57 (the denominator under "what number"). Doing so gives you the same arithmetic sentence as shown above.

Factor: m^2 - 20m - 21
Anton [14]

Answer: (m-21)(m+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor this trinomial, find two numbers that multiply to -21 and add to -20:

(-21)(1)=-21

-21+1=-20

They are -21 and 1.

Add -21 and 1 to m to get both factors:

(m+(-21)) and (m+1)

(m-21) and (m+1)

Multiply them to get the answer:

(m-21)(m+1)
