Answer:

<em>There are 1240 students at Washington middle school.  </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages and Portions </u>

We can find portions of a whole by correctly managing the percentages of each part. We know 25% of all students at Washington middle school were on the honor roll. From that portion, 60% of the students are seventh graders. That means 40% of the 25% are eight graders, i.e. 40*25%=10% were from eight grade.

We have 10% of all students are 124, thus the number of students are 124/10%=1240

There are 1240 students at Washington middle school.  

Let's test the answer. 25% of 1240 students are on the honor roll, which is 310 students. 40% of 310 students are from 8th grade, 40%*310 = 124 as stated in the problem

7y-1=-1+9(y-9)

Add 1 on both sides.
7y=9(y-9)
Distribute.
7y=9y-81
Subtract 7y and add 81 on both sides.
2y=81
y=40.5

<span>4c+3=-12+c-1
</span>Subtract 3 on both sides.
4c=-12-1-3+c
Subtract c on both sides.
3c=-16
c=-16/3
______________________________________________________
<span>-(k+1)-10=-5k+3
</span>Add 10 on both sides.
-(k+1)=-5k+13
Distribute.
-k-1=-5k+13
Add 1 and add 5k on both sides.
4k=14
k=4/14

-w-10=-9-2(w-8)
Distribute.
-w-10=-9-2w+16
Simplify.
-w-10=-2w+7
Add 2w and 10 on both sides.
w=17
______________________________________________________
-2(n-3)-5=-5n+1
Distribute.
-2n+6-5=-5n+1
Simplify.
-2n+1=-5n+1
Add 5n and subtract 1 on both sides.
3n=0
n=0
______________________________________________________

To make sure you got the right answer, you can check your work by plugging the result back into the question and seeing if both sides become equal. If both sides are equal, then the result is correct.
