Hi there!
To solve this problem, we need to simplify.
2/3x = 12
To isolate x, we should multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 2/3 to make x equal to a value:
Reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2
x = 12 * 3/2
x = 18
Hope this helps!

Answer:
Kendra should have divided by 2 instead of multiplying by 2
Step-by-step explanation:
40 percent = percentage who plan to attend
100% = total percentage of student
From the question ;
When reducing percentages, division is employed and this the equation should be :
40/2 ÷ 100/2
40/2 * 2/100
20 * 1/50
20/50
= 0.4
0.4 * 50
= 20 students
Answer:
-10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 44%
Step-by-step explanation:
For a circle of radius R, the area is written as:
A = pi*R^2
Where pi = 3.14
If we increase the radius by 20%, the new radius will be:
R´ = R + 0.20*R = 1.20*R
The new area will be:
A´ = pi*(1.20*R)^2 = (1.20)^2*pi*R^2
= 1.44*pi*R^2
And pi*R^2 = A, the original area, then_
A´ = 1.44*A = A + 0.44*A
This means that the percentage in which the area increased is:
0.44*100% = 44%
The variable a cannot be zero because that would make -9a = zero and 8 divided by zero is indeterminate.
