Answer:
Difference = 250 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total number of students be x.
Given the following data;
% driving = 30%
% riding = 60%
% walking = 10%
Number of students driving = 375
First of all, we would determine the total number of students.
Total = 30/100 * x = 375
0.3x = 375
Total, x = 375/0.3
Total, x = 1250 students.
Next, we determine the number of students walking;
Walking = 10/100 * 1250
Walking = 12500/100
Walking = 125 students
Finally, we would determine many more students drive to school than walk to school;
Difference = 375 - 125
Difference = 250 students
Dimensions of rectangle = 12 + x and 14 + x
(12 + x) (14 + x) = 288
x^2 + 26x + 168 = 288
x^2 + 26x - 120 = 0
(x + 30) (x - 4) = 0
x=-30, x =4
since 4 is positive
the dimensions increased by 4 feet
check the answer
12+4 = 16
14 +4 = 18
18*16 =288
= (3/4 + 1/3)/(1/6 + 3/4)
= (3/4 + 1/3)/(1/6 + 3/4)
Multiply numerator and denoiminator by 12
=12(3/4+1/3) / 12(1/6 + 3/4)
= (3*3 + 1*4) / (2 + 3*3)
= 13/11
Step-by-step explanation:
The bacteria is always doubled because in the sequence we multiply the number by 2
3 x 2 = 6 x 2 = 12 x 2 = 24 x 2 = 48 x 2 = 96
