I think 5.8 would be greater than 60% as it become 0.6

The answer is 5.8 because 60% when made into a decimal is 0.60. It's not a whole. Where as 5.8 when turned into a percentage is actually 580%.

1. There are 250 Seventh Grade students at Diaz Jr. High. Of those students, 1/5 are choir, 1/2 are in athletics, and the rest a

Answer:

I believe 0.75 is the answer. Here is my work:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 250 divided by 5 = 50 (this is to get 1/5 of 250)

2. 250 divided by 2 (because 1/2 is equivalent to 50% of the overall number) = 125

3. 50 + 125 = 175

4. 250-175 = 75

5. 75 can be converted to 0.75 as a decimal by moving 2 digits over.

Therefore, out of the 250 seventh grade students, 0.75 are in other electives.

Also, I'm in 7th grade so this is my work, I'm sure there are other ways of solving this, too. Please do not add this answer if you don't believe I'm right.

Thanks for your time, and have a nice day! : )

H=255-21t-16t^2<br><br> PLEASE HELP!!

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

3.15 seconds is the answer.

<u>Explanation</u>

when the ball touches the ground, h =0

hence,

0=255-21t-16t²

16t²+21t-225=0

here a=16 ,b=21, c= -225

$t= \frac{ - b± \sqrt{ {b }^{2} - 4ac} }{2a} \\ \\ t= \frac{ - 21± \sqrt{ {21}^{2} - 4 \times 16 \times - 225} }{2 \times 16} \\ = \frac{ - 21 ± \sqrt{441 - ( - 14400)} }{32} \\ = \frac{ - 21± \sqrt{14841} }{32} \\ = \frac{ - 21±121.82}{32} \\ \\ t = \frac{ - 21 + 121.82}{32} \: or \: \: t = \frac{ - 21 - 121.82}{32} \\ t = 3.15 \: \: or \: \: t = - 4.46$

time cannot be negative, hence t = -4.46 can be avoided

The ball takes 3.15 seconds to hit the ground.

80% of 6-graders and 20% of 5-graders went on a field trip. If there are 20 6-graders and 80 5-graders, what percent of students

blsea [12.9K]

16 6th graders went on the field trip and 16 5th graders went on the field trip so that makes 32 students all together which means 32% of the students went on the field trip
