In a company, 80% of the workers are women. if 880 men work for the company, how many workers are there in all?

1 answer:

6 0

If 80% are women, then 20% are men

20% of what equals 880
0.20x = 880
x = 880/.20
x = 4400

check..
men : 20% of 4400 = 0.20(400) = 880
women : 80% of 4400 = 0.80(4400) = 3520
totaling : 3520 + 880 = 4400

so there are a total of 4400 workers

The sum of two polynomials is 8d5 – 3c3d2 + 5c2d3 – 4cd4 + 9. If one addend is 2d5 – c3d2 + 8cd4 + 1, what is the other addend?

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

a. $x = 6d^5 - 2c^3d^2 + 5c^2d^3 - 12cd^4 + 8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

$8d^5 + 3c^3d62 + 5c^2d^3 - 4cd^4 + 9$

Now

if one is added i.e.

$2d^5 - c^3d^2 + 8cd^4 + 1$

Now let us assume the other polynomial be x

So,

$8d^5 + 3c^3d62 + 5c^2d^3 - 4cd^4 + 9 = x + (2d^5 - c^3d^2 + 8cd^4 + 1)\\\\x = 8d^5 + 3c^3d62 + 5c^2d^3 - 4cd^4 + 9 - (2d^5 - c^3d^2 + 8cd^4 + 1)\\\\$
