Answer: Part A = (100% - 80%)P = 35, Part B = 140
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Percentage: Like + Don't like = 100%
80% + Don't like = 100%
<u> -80% </u> <u> -80% </u>
Don't like = 20%
People: 20% of Patrons = Don't Like
0.20 x Patrons = 35
<u>÷ 0.20 </u> <u> ÷ 0.20 </u>
Patrons = 175
<u>Now, let's write the equation we used to get that answer</u>:
Let P represent the total number of patrons, then the equation is:
(100% - 80%)P = 35
= (1.00 - 0.80)P = 35
= 0.20P = 35
= P = 175
<u>Part B: </u>
80% of Patrons = Like
0.80 x 175 = Like
140 = Like
1/15 because you add all the blocks together and it gives you 15 and there is only 1 blue block so it will be a 1/15 chance of getting it
X=7 because 7-3 = 4, 7+8= 15,15x4=60.
Answer:
x = 10 or x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
x^2 - 12 x + 20 = 0
Hint: | Solve the quadratic equation by completing the square.
Subtract 20 from both sides:
x^2 - 12 x = -20
Hint: | Take one half of the coefficient of x and square it, then add it to both sides.
Add 36 to both sides:
x^2 - 12 x + 36 = 16
Hint: | Factor the left hand side.
Write the left hand side as a square:
(x - 6)^2 = 16
Hint: | Eliminate the exponent on the left hand side.
Take the square root of both sides:
x - 6 = 4 or x - 6 = -4
Hint: | Look at the first equation: Solve for x.
Add 6 to both sides:
x = 10 or x - 6 = -4
Hint: | Look at the second equation: Solve for x.
Add 6 to both sides:
Answer: x = 10 or x = 2
