Answer:

8,600 acres are old-growth trees.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find this by multiplying the percentage by the overall number of acres

20% * 43,000 = 8,600

Answer:

There are 86 acres of old-growth trees.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to answer the question, we need to calculate the 0.2% of 43,000.

We can calculate this stating that exists a linear relationship between the percentage and the amount of acres. We also need to state that 43,000 acres are the 100% of the acres.

Therefore, we can write the following equation to calculate the percentage :

\frac{43,000}{100}=\frac{x}{0.2}

If we solve the equation in terms of ''x'' :

x=(\frac{43,000}{100}).(0.2)=86

x=86

We find that if 43,000 acres are the 100% of the acres ⇒ The 0.2% of the acres are 86 acres (in which there are old-growth trees).

Solve the equation 29 - (x+8) = 6x - 7
max2010maxim [7]
First step you should do is s<span>implify both sides of your equation:
</span>29-(x+8)=6x-7
Distribute the Negative Sign:
29+-1(x+8)=6x-7
29+-1x+(-1)(8)=6x-7
29+-x+-8=6x-7
29+-x+-8=6x+-7
<span>Combine Like Terms:
</span>(-x)+(29+-8)=6x-7
-x+21=6x-7
<span>Subtract 6x from both sides:
</span>-x+21-6x=6x-7-6x
-7x+21=-7
<span>Subtract 21 from both sides:
</span>-7x+21-21=-7-21 
-7x=-28 
<span>Divide both sides by -7:
</span>-7x/-7 = -28/-7
And now your answer should be:
x=4

Steps in multiplying fractions. Remember: finding common denominator is not necessary in multiplying fractions. 
Common denominators are only needed in adding and subtracting fractions.

14/15 * 5/2 

Step 1. Multiply the numerators.
14 * 5 = 70
Step 2. Multiply the denominators
15 * 2 = 30
Step 3. Simplify the fraction.
70/30 = 2 10/30 = 2 1/3      

*the fraction 10/30 can still be simplified by dividing both numbers by 10. Hence, 1/3.

Steps in Dividing fractions.

24/60 ÷ 8/15

Step 1. Get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction. Reciprocal means the reverse of the fraction. Simply swap the places of the numbers.

Reciprocal of 8/15 is 15/8.

Step 2. Multiply the 1st fraction to the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction. Follow steps in multiplying fractions.

24/60 * 15/8 = (24*15) / (60*8) = 360/480

Step 3. Simplify the fraction.
360/480 = 9 / 12 = 3/4

360 ÷ 40 =   9 ;   9 ÷ 3 = 3
480 ÷ 40 = 12 ; 12 ÷ 3 = 4
