Answer:560

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the number of students the school have last year

135% of a=756

135/100 x a=756

135a/100=756

Cross multiplying we get

135a=756 x100

135a=75600

Divide both sides by 135

135a/135=75600/135

a=560

If for every 12 blue streamers there is 9 gold streamers, how many blue streamers will I have if I have 36 gold streamers?
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

You will have 48 blue streamers.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by proportions, using rule of three.

We have that:

For 12 blue streamers, there are have 9 gold streamers. How many blue streamers are there when there are 36 gold streamers?

12 blue - 9 gold

x blue - 36 gold

Applying cross multiplication

9x = 36*12

Simplifying by 9

x = 4*12 = 48

You will have 48 blue streamers.

Joshua’s computer loan statement said he would pay $1,244.34 in simple interest for a three-year loan at 12.4%. How much did Jos
rusak2 [61]

Answer: Josh borrowed $ 876  to buy the computer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for simple interest : I = Prt

, where P = principal amount

r= rate of interest ( in decimal)

t=time (in years)

Total amount with simple interest to pay : A = P+I

⇒ A = P +Prt

⇒ A = P(1 +rt)         (i)

As per given , A = $1,244.34

r= 12.4% = 0.124

t= 3 years

Now, put these values in (i) , we get

1244.34=P(1+0.124)^3\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1244.34=P(1.124)^3\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1244.34=P(1.420034624)\\\\\Rightarrow\ P=\dfrac{1244.34}{1.420034624}\\\\\Rightarrow\ P=876.27

Hence, Josh borrowed $ 876  to buy the computer.
