Answer: 2nd most popular country = 15895 students
most popular country = 24390 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Total students: 40,285
2nd most popular country = x students
most popular country = x + 8,495 students
x + x + 8495 = 40285
2x + 8495 = 40285
2x = 40285 - 8495
2x = 31790
x = 15895
2nd most popular country = x = 15895 students
most popular country = x + 8,495 = 15895 + 8,495 = 24390 students
$2.99 + 7% of $2.99 =
= $2.99 + 7% * $2.99
= $2.99 + 0.07 * $2.99
= $2.99 + $0.21
= $3.20
You have to make a proportion:
12+x/8=8/x
Then cross multiply to solve for x
Nearest 1,000 = 24,062,000
Nearest 100,000= 24,100,000
Hope its correct :)
