8/12=2/3=66.667%
(2/3)*126=84 people were happy

You could solve this using a proportion or just by common sense. 

Proportion: 8/12 = x/126

Cross multiply: 12x = 1008

1008/12 = 84

Or the common sense route is just dividing 12 by 8 then multiplying the answer by 126. Either way, you get the same answer. Hope this helps! :)

podryga [215]

Simplified expression for total amount spent is 10(2.05 + m)

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Write expression for expense on joining cooking club for m months.

Expense = 8.50 + 6.25 × m

  • Step 2: Write expression for expense on joining movie club for m months.

Expense = 12 + 3.75 × m

  • Step 3: Calculate the total amount spent on both clubs

Total Amount = 8.50 + 6.25m + 12 + 3.75m = 20.5 + 10m = 10(2.05 + m)

Help with b please I don’t understand it
galben [10]

Answer:

This is a 25% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

percent change = (old - new)/old * 100 %

The new price is 15

The old price is 20

Since the new price is less than the old price, it is a decrease

percent change = (20-15)/20 * 100 %

                           = 5/20 * 100%

                            =.25 * 100%

                             = 25%

This is a 25% decrease
