Answer: \\ A - 20\%A = A - 0.2A = 0.8A \\ 0.8A + 20\%0.8A = 0.8A + 0.2 \times 0.8A = 0.8 + 0.16A = 0.96A

54 divided by _____ = -27
Nikitich [7]

54/-2 = -27

First, let's rewrite:

Let x represent the unknown number:

\frac{54}{x}=\text{ -27}

\begin{gathered} \frac{54}{x}\text{ = -27} \\ 54\text{ = -27x} \\ \text{Divide both sides by -27} \\ \frac{54}{-27}=\text{ }\frac{-27x}{-27} \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} 27\times2\text{ = 54} \\ x\text{ = -2  (because we are dividing positive number by a negative number)} \\ So\text{ our answer will be negative} \end{gathered}

Hence, 54/-2 = -27

Hector is dividing students into groups for an HR wants to divide the boys and girls so that each group has the same number of t
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

7 groups, 3 boys and 8 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total number of groups be x

and total hikers in one group be y

if number of girls and boys in every group is same, then

\frac{21}{x} + \frac{56}{x} = y

\frac{21 + 56}{x} = y\\x*y = 77 ....(1)

from (1) x will either be 11 or 7

for x = 11 the values won't be real.

For x = 7\\y = \frac{77}{7} \\y = 11

so there will be 7 groups with 11 hikers in each groups and every group will have \frac{21}{7} = 3 boys and \frac{56}{7} = 8 girls

Answer:

A cylinder with a volume of 27\pi cubic inches and a height of 3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Volume of a cylinder = \pir²h
    (where r is the radius and h is the height)

Volume = 27\pi

Height = 3

⇒ 27\pi = 3\pir²

⇒ 9 = r²

⇒ r = √9 = 3

So height = radius
