Answer:

24 students

Step-by-step explanation:

If 60% equals 72, then 20% would be 1/3 of 72 which is 24.

Answer:

24 students selected milk

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total number of students,

Since, 60% of students selected soda,

⇒ Number of students who selected soda = 60% of x = 0.6x

According to the question,

0.6x = 72

Divide both sides by 0.6,

⇒ x = 120

Now, 20% students selected milk

Hence, the number of student who selected milk = 20% of 120 = 0.20 × 120 = 24

If p is directly proportional to q, and p=9 when q=7.5, find q when p=24.
pishuonlain [190]
<h3>Solution and Explanation:</h3>

If p and q are directly proportional, then they must have a common scalar.

To find q we must first find its scalar. If we let a be the scalar we can form the equation, ap = q.

We are given the information that if q = 7.5 then p = 9. We can use that in finding the scalar.

a \times 9 = 7.5 \\ \frac{a \times 9}{9} = \frac{7.5}{9} \\ a = \frac{75}{90} \\ a = \frac{15}{18}

Now we can solve for q when p = 24 knowing that our scalar is \frac{15}{18}\\.

ap = q \\ \frac{15}{18} \times 24 = q \\ \frac{360}{18} = q \\ 20 = q

<h3>Answer:</h3>

q = 20 when p = 24

How do i solve this? 2x(7y-4)-3y=14​
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

All you do is distribute the 2x throughout the parentheses.

2x(7y - 4) - 3y = 14

14xy - 8x - 3y = 14

I hope this helps, and is the answer you were looking for!
