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

djverab [1.8K]
The total cost for video rental, f(n), is the sum of the membership fee and the cost of renting video game. The latter is the product of cost per video game times n video games. The correct equation used to represent the total cost is,
                          f(n) = 20 + 2n
Since the membership is increased by 15, the new equation is,
                          f(n) = 35 + 2n
