<h3>Answer:  280</h3>

Work Shown:

x = number of students in the 6th grade class

30% = 30/100 = 0.30

30% of x = 0.30x this is equal to 84 since "30% of the 6th graders are boys (and there are 84 boys in sixth grade)", so we say 0.30x = 84

Divide both sides by 0.30 to isolate x

0.30x = 84

0.30x/0.30 = 84/0.30

x = 280

So there are 280 students overall in the 6th grade class.

Answer:

280 students

Step-by-step explanation:

84 is 30% of a whole. In order to find the whole we must divide.

to divide we have to turn 30% into a decimal (move the point two spaces to the left: 0.3) then 84/0.3 and that gives you 280.

and to check your answer, if you do 280*0.3 that gives you 84.

so, 84 is 30% of the whole 280

there are 280 students.

Hope this helps!

Is this correct pls help
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Volume of round cake pan = volume of cylinder

Volume of a cylinder = \pi r^2h (where r is the radius and h is the height)

Radius = \dfrac12 diameter ⇒ r=\dfrac72=3.5

⇒ volume of round cake pan = \pi \times 3.5^2 \times 2=24.5\pi

= 76.97 in³ (nearest hundredth)

Volume of rectangular cake pan = volume of rectangular prism

volume of rectangular prism = wlh (where w is the width, l is the length and h is the height)

⇒ volume of rectangular cake pan = 6 x 9 x 2 = 108 in³

As 108 > 76.97, the rectangular cake pan has a larger volume

The linear combination method is applied to a system of equations as shown.
olga_2 [115]
If you apply the linear combination method to the system like:
<span>4(.25x + .5y = 3.75) → x + 2y = 15
(4x – 8y = 12) → x – 2y = 3
2x = 18
Then you can be sure that the solution of all this system is: (9,3). Hope this si what you were looking for</span>

I was absent the day they taught this and my teacher refuses to teach me
julsineya [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

it's something in algebra i don't remember but basically the top number (12) has the x on the bottom which is multiplication and the bottom number (8) has addition so those tell u how ur supposed to get those numbers

so basically u need to find two numbers that add up to 8 and multiply to 12 so the factors are 6 and 2 because 6 • 2 is 12 and 6 + 2 = 8. hope this helps
