Answer:

700

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Daily evening newspapers in 2015 = 389

Percentage decrease from 2000 to 2015 = 46.5%

To find:

Number of newspapers in 2000 = ?

Solution:

Let the number of newspapers in 2000 = x

When 46.5% of the total newspapers in 2000 (x) is subtracted from the total  newspapers in 2000 (x), it will be equal to the number of newspapers in 2015.

Making the equation as per the given statement:

x-x\times 46.5\%=389\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{100x-46.5x}{100}=389\\\Rightarrow 53.5x=38900\\\Rightarrow x\approx \bold{727}

Therefore, the answer is:

There were <em>727 </em>newspapers in 2000.

A construction manager needs 12 workers to complete a building project in 54 days. Find in terms of T the number of workers need
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

<h3>2T/9</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

A construction manager needs 12 workers to complete a building project in 54 days, we can write;

12 workers = 54 days

T find the number of workers needed to complete the same project in T days, we will write;

x workers = T days

Divide both equations

12/x = 54/T

Cross multiply

12T = 54x

x = 12T/54

x = 2T/9

Hence the number of workers needed to complete the same project in T days is 2T/9 workers
