48/100=48%
To find the answer, you would put the total number of boys over the total number of kids who responded to the survey since the question wanted to know what percentage of all the kids were boys. Since the denominator is already 100, we can immediately say that the numerator, or 48, is the percentage of boys who took the survey. The other 52% of the kids were the girls who responded to the survey.

<em>Comment on the squaring</em>
There are several ways you can find the square (x+4)².
- Use your knowledge that (x+a)² = x²+2ax+a².
- Use FOIL* to compute (x+4)(x+4) = x² +4x +4x +4² = x²+8x+16
- Use the distributive property: (x+4)(x+4) = x(x+4) +4(x+4) = x² +4x +4x +4² (same as FOIL for two binomials)
__
* FOIL is mnemonic for {First, Outer, Inner, Last} referring to pairs of terms in the factors (x +a)(x +b). The x terms are the First terms. The Outer terms are the first x and b. The Inner terms are "a" and the second x. The Last terms are "a" and "b". You are to form the sum of those pairs of terms to find the product of the binomials.
9xa is the common factor.
You can complete the statement by dividing the two terms of the expression of the left side by 9xa, and you will get:
36x^3a + 45xa^2 = 9xa ( 4x^2 + 5a)
Answer:
the correct answer is $14.55%

Answer:
7 in
Step-by-step explanation:
For width w in inches, the length is given as 2w+1. The area is the product of length and width, so we have ...
A = LW
105 = (2w +1)w
2w^2 +w -105 = 0
To factor this, we're looking for factors of -210 that have a difference of 1.
-210 = -1(210) = -2(105) = -3(70) = -5(42) = -6(35) = -7(30) = -10(21) = -14(15)
So, the factorization is ...
(2w +15)(w -7) = 0
Solutions are values of w that make the factors zero:
w = -15/2, +7 . . . . . negative dimensions are irrelevant
The width of the rectangle is 7 inches.
