Answer:
About 8 children were sick
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of children in Ms. kloot's class is 27.
The percentage of students who were absent due to the flu 26.
Number of children who were sick
This simplifies to:
Therefore about 8 children were sick
Answer:
150.833... or 150 and 5/6 crates
Step-by-step explanation:
We can create an equation to solve this.
Let x represent the number of 120 kilogram crates that can be loaded into the chipping container.
120x (weight of the crates) + 5900 (weight already in the container) = 24000 (max weight in the container)
We'll start by subtracting 5900 from both sides to try to isolate x, the number of containers we still need to meet 24000 kilograms.
120x = 18100
Now we just have to isolate x by dividing by 120.
x = 150.83333333333333333333333333333
If you want to use a mixed fraction form for this solution since the 3's keep repeating, it would be 150 and 5/6 crates.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The first answer is correct because we have a decay factor.
The sample is losing mass, so the number that is being multiplied by a power of x must be less than 1.
If the second answer were used, then the sample would be gaining mass.
