Hello! So to solve this question, we can write and solve a proportion. We write the proportion as change/original = x/100, where change is the distance between two number and the original is the previous number. Percents are parts of 100, so x is a percentage out of 100%. 1,435 - 1,220 is 215. Now, set it up like this.
215/1,435 = x/100
Cross multiply the values to get 21,500 = 1,435x. Divide each side by 1,435 to isolate the "x". 21,500/1,435 is 14.9825783972 or 15 when rounded to the nearest whole number. The percent change in the number of 8th graders is about 15%.
The interest rate for his account was r ≈ 1.375% .
5x - 3 = 11 + 12x
---Subtract 5x from both sides
-3 = 11 + 7x
---Subtract 11 from both sides
-14 = 7x
---Divide both sides by 7 to leave x by itself
x = -2
Answer: x = -2
Answer Choice: A, -2
Hope this helps!
Answer:
3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note the prime factorization of 120,

Therefore, there are 3 distinct prime factors, namely 2, 3 and 5.
Answer:
41.5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data :
Month : J F M A M J J A S O N D
Inflow : 3 4 5 3 4 10 28 17 7 6 3 2
Outflow : 7 8 7 11 6 8 21 12 5 4 5 9
The unit of water in reservoir at the middle of August :
Initial unit = Unit of water at the start of the year = 50
Middle of August :
Inflow = 17 /2 = 8.5
Outflow = 12 /2 = 6
Unit of water at the middle of August :
Initial unit + Inflow - Outflow
Inflow till mid-August = (3+4+5+3+4+10+28+8.5) = 65.5
Outflow till mid-August = (7+8+7+11+6+8+21+6) = 74
50 + 65.5 - 74 = 41.5
