Answer:
There are no solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
−2x=−2(x−14)
-2x=(−2)(x)+(−2)(−14)
-2x=−2x+28
-2x+2x=−2x+28+2x
0= 28
Let the initial number of girls be x, this represents 40% of the dancers.
Total number of dancers will therefore be:
100/40*x=2.5x
When 15 more girls joined, the new number of girls was:
x+15 this represents the total percentage of 52%. The new number of dancers became:
2.5x+15:
therefore the new percentage of girls can be expressed as follows:
(new number of girls)/(new number of dancers)×100
(x+15)/(2.5x+15)×100=52
(x+15)/(2.5x+15)=0.52
x+15=0.52(2.5x+15)
x+15=1.3x+7.8
15-7.8=1.3x-x
7.2=0.3x
x=7.2/0.3=24
The number of students after additional number of girls will be:
2.5x+15
=2.5×24+15
=60+15
=75 students
<span>You must change the whole number into an improper fraction. Just for an example, if you were told to solve 5 x 1/5, you must make 5 an improper fraction, which is 5/1. Then you just multiply the fractions to get 1.
My answer is similar to the one above!! Sorry!!</span>
Answer:
<em>192cm²</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonal of the rectangle is expressed using the formula:
d = √l²+w²
l is the length
w is the width
Given d = 20
20 = √l²+w²
400 = l²+w² .... 1
Since the difference between the length and the width is 4cm, then;
l - w = 4 ... 2
l = 4 + w
Substitute equation 2 into 1;
400 = (4+w)²+w²
400 = 16 +8w + w² +w²
400 = 16 + 8w + 2w²
2w²+8w - 384 = 0
w²+4w - 192 = 0
w = -4±√4²-4(-192)/2
w = -4±√16+768/2
w = -4±28/2
w = -4+28/2
w = 24/2
w = 12
Since l = w+4
l = 12+4
l = 16
Area of the rectangle = 16 * 12
<em>Area of the rectangle = 192cm²</em>
