15/100 ÷ 3 = 5 / 100      5 / 100 = 8 Athletes
and if you multiply 5 and 20 you get a hundred so now it's a whole, but you have to do the same thing with 8 

so...
 
The answer is: 160 Athletes competed in the meeting.

What I would do is work out what 5/100 is
Which is 8 athletes
I would add 8 and 24 which is 32
Finally times by 4, which is 128

A masonry contractor is preparing an estimate for building a stone wall and gate. He estimates that the job will take a​ 40-hour
kodGreya [7K]

Solution: Estimated time for the work is 40 hour work week.

Estimated payment to 3 laborers working 40 hours at cost $14 per hour is:

3\times 40\times 14= $1680

Estimated payment to 6 masons working 40 hours at cost $24 per hour is:

6\times 40\times 24= $5760

Estimated cost of material = $3143

Contractor wishes to make a profit of $500

Therefore, the mathematical expression that will give the estimated cost of the job is:

Cost = 1680+5760+3143+500

The estimated total cost is:

Cost =$11083

What is the value of x in the equation 3 minus 2 x = negative 1.5 x? –6 –2 2 6
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

x=118.25

Step-by-step explanation:

3−2x=−1.5−6−226

3+−2x=−1.5+−6+−226

−2x+3=(−1.5+−6+−226)(Combine Like Terms)

−2x+3=−233.5

−2x+3=−233.5

Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.

−2x+3−3=−233.5−3

−2x=−236.5

Step 3: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x

−2

=

−236.5

−2

x=118.25

10 + 2(7 - 9x) = 5(2x - 12)<br><br><br>Full steps as well please
blagie [28]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

10 + 2(7 - 9x) = 5(2x - 12)

10 + 14 - 18x = 10x - 60

24 - 18x = 10x - 60

+60                 +60

-------------------------------------

84 - 18x = 10x

     +18x    +18x

-------------------------------------

84 = 28x

/28    /28

--------------------------------------

3 = x
