20 students.

40% are boys. (40/100)*20 = 0.4 * 20 = 8 boys.
Girls= 20 - 8 = 12 girls.

25% of the boys wear glasses. = (25/100)*8 = 0.25*8 = 2 boys wear glasses.
50% of the girls wear glasses. = (50/100)*12 = 0.50*12 = 6 girls wear glasses.

Total students that wear glasses = 2 + 6 = 8 students.
8 students wear glasses.

Answer:

k= -7

Step-by-step explanation:

multiple both sides of the equation by 56.

16k - 21 = -133

move the constant to the right hand side and change its sign.

16k = -133 + 21

Calculate the sum.

16k= -112

Divide both sides by 16.

k = -7

Solution is K = -7

Part two.

Take away 19.5 from 40 to get your answer.

your answer is then less than forty so it's the symbol <.

I am not entirely sure on this second part I would get someone to double check it as I'm not the best at inequalities and such. If any help is needed with what I done just ask.
