By moving the signs he actually changed the number itself. He changed -6 from a negative to a positive and 5 from a positive to a negative. Both equations give different answers. 

Hopefully this helps :)

malfutka [58]

Answer:

a = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

a/4 = 15/12

We can use cross products to solve

a* 12 = 4*15

Can somebody help me solve for x?
Dahasolnce [82]

Let y = the distance between the top left corner and the bottom right corner

y^2 = 24^2 + 15^2

y^2 = 801

y = 3 * sqrt(89)

Now we can find x.

12^2 + x^2 = (3 * sqrt(89))^2

x^2 = 657

x = 3 * sqrt(73) or 25.63

The population of a town is 32600 about 27% are over 60 years old about 19% are 16 or under how many are between 16 and 60
r-ruslan [8.4K]
Answer: 17604

Explanation: In order to find a percentage, mulptiply the population by the percentage with a decimal in front. Like this:

32600 • .46

I got 46 because 27 + 19 = 46

Once you get that answer, subtract it from the original total

32600 - 14996 = 17604

You're done! Hope this helps
