We have a total of 178 6th and 7th graders. And we are informed that there are 12 more 6th graders the 7th graders. Let x = the number of 7th graders

x + (x + 12) = 178
Subtract 12 from both sides

x + x = 166
Add like terms

2x = 166
x = 83

So, there are 83 7th graders. And add 12 to find the number of 6th graders.

12 + 83 = 95

How to solve 10x+36-38x-47
Natasha2012 [34]
You probably just need to simplify the expression. To do this you just combine like terms. So you would subtract 38 from the 10 to get -28x and then subtract 47 from 36 which gives you -11. Your expression should be -28x-11.<span />

What is the area of the following polygon?
muminat

The area of the polygon is 25.5 square units

<h3>How to determine the area of the polygon?</h3>

From the figure, we have the following coordinates

A = (-2, 1)

B = (3, 2)

C = (5, -3)

D = (-1, -3)

The area of the polygon is then calculated as:

A = 0.5 * |(x1y2 - x2y1) + (x2y3 - x3y2) + (x3y4 - x4y3) + (x4y1 - x1y4)|

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Area = 0.5 * |(-2 * 2 - 3 * 1) + (3 * -3  - 5 * 2) + (5 * -3  + 1 * -3) + (-1 * 1 + 2 * -3)|

Evaluate the sum of products

Area = 0.5 * |-51|

Remove the absolute bracket

Area = 0.5 * 51

Evaluate the product

Area = 25.5

Hence, the area of the polygon is 25.5 square units

pochemuha

Saturn takes 17.6 more years than Jupiter, so 17.6 + 11.9 will get you how long Saturn will take to orbit the sun, which would give you 29.5 years.

Write 56 1/4% as a fraction is simplest form
bazaltina [42]

56.25% as a decimal is 0.5625

0.5626 is equal to 5625/10000, which can be simplified to 9/16

This is because the common factor of 5625 and 10000 is 625. We divide the numerator and denominator by 625 to achieve 9/16.
