Answer: There are 40 dentists who would recommended Sparkly toothpaste to their patients .

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Out of 20 dentists, a survey was taken of about Sparkly toothpaste,

Number of dentists recommended Sparkly toothpaste to their patients = 16

Percentage of dentists who recommended Sparkly toothpaste to their patients be

\frac{16}{20}\times 100=80\%

Out of 30 dentists, a survey was taken of about Sparkly toothpaste,

Number of dentists recommended Sparkly toothpaste to their patients = 24

Similarly,

Percentage of dentists who recommended Sparkly toothpaste to their patients be

\frac{24}{30}\times 100=80\%

Now, we have asked to find the number of dentists recommended Sparkly toothpaste to their patients if survey was taken of 50 dentists.

As we have seen that there is always 80% of total number of dentists surveyed have recommended Sparkly toothpaste to their patients ,

so, According to this pattern , we get that

\frac{80}{100}\times 50=40

Hence, there are 40 dentists who would recommended Sparkly toothpaste to their patients .

SOLVE FOR X. pls i need help
Lyrx [107]
X=8
Set up proportions would give you: 10/3x+1 = 22/7x-1
With that in mind, cross multiply, which would give you: 10(7x-1) = 22(3x+1).
Turns into: 70x -10 = 66x+22. Then just solve for x

Answer:

#1=2

#2= 14

#3= 26

#4= 32

Step-by-step explanation:

y=6x-16

Lets use the first one as an example: since x is our variable we can plug in 3 into the equation to make y=(6x3)-16. 6x3=18, so y=18-16 which is 2. You can plug in any other number to find your answer as long as you follow the pattern in the equation.
