Answer:

There were 26 students in his class and the teacher had 83 ml of the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Kohl has a "x" amount of solution, if he divides it by the number of students "n" he'll give each student 3 milliliters  and have a left over of 5 milliliters. If the amount of solution Mr. Kohl had was "x + 21" then he'd be able to give each student 4 milliliters of the solution. From these informations we have:

x = 3*n + 5

(x + 21)/n = 4

x + 21 = 4*n

x = 4*n - 21

Now that we have two equations and two variables we can solve the system of equations, as seen bellow:

3*n + 5 = 4*n - 21

3*n - 4*n = -21 - 5

-n = -26

n = 26

x = 4*26 - 21 = 83 ml

There were 26 students in his class and the teacher had 83 ml of the solution.

Solve. 3/9A = 81<br><br> a = 9 <br><br> a=81 3/9<br><br> a = 27 <br><br> a = 243
Harrizon [31]
To solve for A, multiply each side by 9A to get rid of the fraction, so then 3 = 81(9A) --> 3 = 729A --> 3/729 = 1/243

erma4kov [3.2K]

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponent of a number describes how many times to multiply the number by itself.

(0.2)^3=0.2 \times 0.2\times 0.2

<u>Multiply;</u>

0.2 \times 0.2 \times 0.2

0.04 \times 0.2

0.008

\boxed{C. \: 0.008 \: is \: the \: correct \: option.}
