There will be 1.078x students next year and equation is number of students in next year = x + 7.8% of x

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given, There are "x" number of students at helms.  

The number of students increases by 7.8% each year which means if there "x" number of students in present year, then the number of students in next year will be x + 7.8% of x

Number of students in next year = number of students in present year + increased number of students.

\begin{array}{l}{\text { Number of students in next year }=x+7.8 \% \text { of } x} \\\\ {\text { Number of students in next year }=x\left(1+\frac{7.8}{100}\right)} \\\\ {\text { Number of students in next year }=x(1+0.078)=1.078 x}\end{array}

Thus there will be 1.078x students in next year

Write an equation of a line whose graph is parallel to the graph of y = 3x – 10.
Nataly [62]

Answer:

y= -3x +4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the lines are parallel, the slopes are the same

so if a line is parallel to y =3x-10, the slope is also m=3

using y= mx+b

y = 3x+b

we can pick any b but -10 because that would make it the same line

Christine basked a pie.she ate one sixth of the pie. Her brother ate one third of the pie and gave the leftovers to his friends
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Her brother gave his friends one half the pie.

Step-by-step explanation:

The whole pie is equal to 6/6, because that's equal to one. 1/3 = 1/6. 6/6 - 2/6 = 5/6. 5/6 - 2/6 = 3/6. 3/6 = 1/2.

Why is 4b-7-3b+9 equal to b+2
rodikova [14]
The first expression can be simplified by combining like terms.

First, the terms "4b" and "-3b" can be combined to form "b"
Then, the terms "-7" and "9" can be combined to form "2"

Finally, we simply put these two final terms together, to form "b+2"

Hence, 4b-7-3b+9 is equal to be + 2.

Hope this helps!
