Answer:

30 students

100 ÷ 20 = 50

60 ÷ 2 = 30 students

30 of the 50 students are 12 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

60% of 50

60 : 100

X : 50

60/100 × 50

3/5 × 50 = 30

Answer:

60 ÷ 2 = the number of students who are 12 years old.

60 ÷ 2 = 30 students

30 of the 50 students are 12 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Change the percent to a decimal

.60 *50 =30

We can rewrite the decimal as a fraction

60/100 *50

We can change the order

60 * 50/100

60 *1/2

Multiplying by 1/2 is the same as dividing by 2

60 ÷ 2 = the number of students who are 12 years old.

60 ÷ 2 = 30 students

30 of the 50 students are 12 years old.

Why does (-4 1/2)^2 = 20.25? Thank you please hurry!
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Squaring a number means to multiply the number by itself.

For example, 3^2 means 3 * 3.

8^2 means 8 * 8.

(-6)^2 means (-6) * (-6).

In each case above, you see that the number that is squared is multiplied by itself.

In this case, (-4.5)^2, squaring the number -4.5, means multiply the number -4.5 by the number -4.5

(-4.5)^2 = (-4.5) * (-4.5)

Now we need to actually multiply -4.5 by -4.5

When you multiply a negative number by a negative number, the result is positive, so the product of -4.5 and -4.5 is a positive number. To find that number, you multiply 4.5 by 4.5

4.5 * 4.5 = 20.25

Therefore, (-4.5)^2 = 20.25
