To find a % you want to divide the # of new members, by the total # of members.
14/34 =0.41
Since this gave you a decimal, multiplying by 100 will give you a %!
0.41 x 100 = 41%
This means that 41% of the club is new members!
The grade will round up to around 70 percent the low ones will hold it down
Data:
<span>segment AU = 20x + 108,
segment UB = 273,
segment BC = 703,
segment UV = 444,
segment AV = 372 and
segment AC = 589.
From the figure:
1) Similarity => segment AB / segment BC = segment AU / segment UV
2) segment AB = segment AU + segment UB = 20x + 108 + 273 = 20x + 381
=> (20x + 381) / 703 = (20x + 108) / 444
=> 444 (20x + 381) = 703 (20x + 108)
=> 8880x + 169164 = 14060x + 75924
=> 14060x - 8880x = 169164 - 75924
=> 5180 x = 93240
=> x = 93240 / 5180
=> x = 18
Answer: x = 18

Bob found out that he can dig 8 inches down every minute. If he wants to put a 5 foot stick in the hole with 28 inches showing, how long does he have to dig?
(so to solve you convert 5 feet to 60 inches then do the equation -8x+60=28 then you add 8x to both sides, subtract 28 then divide by 8 leaving you with 4 minutes)
