40% of 20 equals 8.

First, we need to think that 20 is our 100%.
Let's make the variable v as the value we're looking for.

20/v = 100/40
We need to multiply both sides of the equation by v.
(20/v) * v = (100/40) * v

Now, we're left with 20 = 2.5x

We need to divide both sides of the equation to isolate the variable x.
20/2.5 = 2.5x/2.5
8 = x

Our final answer is 8.

Jaden’s teacher had 4 boxes of pens that each contained y pens. She took 6 pens out of one of the boxes and told her 17 students
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

x = (4y-6)/17

where x is the  number of pens each student got.

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of boxes = 4

no. of pen in 1 box = y

total no, of pens in 4 box =  No. of boxes *no. of pen in 1 box = 4y

No. of pen took away by Jaden's teacher = 6

no. of pens left = 4y - 6

This, 4y - 6 pen has to be divided among 17 students.

Let  each student get x pen

thus, total no. of pen got by 17 student  = 17x

This, 17x should be equal to total no. of pens available which is 4y-6

17x = 4y-6

=> x = (4y-6)/17

Thus, expression to represent  number of pens each student got

is x = (4y-6)/17

 Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to 4 x + 3 y = 5 and goes through the point (3, –3)
Allisa [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

the line equation

y = ax + b

gives us slope (a) and y-interception (b).

4x + 3y = 5

3y = -4x + 5

y = -4/3 × x + 5/3

the slope of the original line is therefore -4/3.

a perpendicular slope flips x and y upside-down and flips the sign.

so, the perpendicular slope of -4/3 is 3/4.

the desired line looks like

y = 3/4 × x + b

b we get by using the given point and its coordinates :

-3 = 3/4 × 3 + b = 9/4 + b

-12/4 = 9/4 + b

b = -21/4

so our full line equation is

y = 3/4 × x - 21/4

or

4y = 3x - 21

-3x + 4y = -21

The sum of the squares of two consecutive integers is 145. Find the two integers.
worty [1.4K]

Answer: The two integers are 8 and 9.

Step-by-step explanation: Let n represent the number.

n^2 + (n + 1)^2 = 145

By foiling, this can be rearranged to:

n^2 + n^2 + 2n + 1 = 145

Subtract 145 from both sides:

2n^2 + 2n - 144 = 0

Divide both sides by 2:

n^2 + n - 72 = 0

Factor the polynomial:

(n + 9)(n - 8) = 0

Solve for n:

n = -9, n = 8

Since they need to be consecutive, make the 9 positive. It will be positive either way because it is being squared.

Now, n = 9 and n = 8.

These are your two integers. Hope this helps!
