<u>Answer:</u>
Below!
<u>Step-by step explanation:</u>
<u>We know that:</u>
<u>Solution of Question A:</u>
<u>Percent of children: Total children/Total attendance</u>
- => 400/1500
- => 4/15
- => 0.27 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)
- => 0.27 x 100
- => 27%
<u>Hence, the percent of children is about 27%.</u>
<u>Solution of Question B:</u>
<u>Percent of women: Total women/Total attendance</u>
- => 850/1500
- => 85/150
- => 17/30
- => 17/30 x 100
- => 17/3 x 10
- => 170/3
- => 56.67%
<u>Hence, the percent of women is 56.67%.</u>
<u>Solution of Question C:</u>
- 400 + 850 + m = 1500
- => 1250 + m = 1500
- => m = 1500 - 1250
- => m = 250
<u>Percent of men: Total men/Total attendance</u>
- => 250/1500
- => 1/6
- => 0.17 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)
- => 0.17 x 100
- => 17%
<u>Hence, the percent of men is about 17%</u>

Answer:
divide this amount ($88.26875) by the number of people
Step-by-step explanation:
6.75% of $72.50 is 4.89375
15% of $72.50 is 10.875
72.50 + 4.89375 + 10.875 = 88.26875
divide this amount (88.26875) by the number of people
Answer: x = 4,11
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 7x - 34 - 10 = 0
x^2 - 7x - 44 = 0
Factorise it
x^2 - 11x - 4x - 44 = 0
x ( x - 11 ) - 4 ( x - 11 ) = 0
(x-4)(x-11) = 0
x = 4,11
