Let's set up a proportion.

\frac{x}{800}  \frac{12}{100}

Then solve for x:
12 x 800 = 9600
9600/100 = 96

96 is 12% of the 800 students. :)

Hope this helped! If you have anymore questions or don't understand, please comment or DM me. :)

First you will need to set up your equation. Your 800 students is equal to 100% and x is equal to your 12%. Your equation should be set up similarly:

   x            12
___    =   ___
800        100

Next you will cross multiply. You will multiply x with 100 and 12 with 800.

100 * x = 12 * 800
100x = 9,600

Finally, you will make x equivalent to 1. You do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 100.

100x = 9,600
/ 100     /100
x = 96

If you have done your equation properly then your answer should come out to 96 students.

Find x intercepts of polynomial =a^2+16+64
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you mean a^2 + 16a + 64.

The x-intercepts are the values of a for which the polynomial equals zero.

a^2 + 16a + 64 = (a+8)^2 = 0

a = 8

The x-intercept is 8.

-9 – 3.
Len [333]

Answer:

3 x -3y = -9y

3 x -1 = -3

The factored expression is 3(-3y - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is -9y / 3 = -3y and -3 / 3 = -1, then put those numbers in parentheses. All of that is multiplied by 3.

The reason is because if you distributed the 3 it would become:

3 * -3y + 3 * -1 = -9y - 3

16% of students scored higher than 80 on a recent normally distributed exam the standard deviation is 10 what is the mean
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

70.06

Mean score = 70

Step-by-step explanation:

16% of students scored higher than 80 on a recent normally distributed exam the standard deviation is 10 what is the mean

For a normal distribution :

Zscore = (x - mean) / standard deviation

x = score

P(Z > 80) = 16% = 0.16 ; corresponding Zscore = 0.994 (Z probability calculator)

Therefore ;

0.994 = (80 - mean) / 10

0.994 * 10 = 80 - mean

9.94 = 80 - mean

Mean = 80 - 9.94

Mean = 70.06

Hence, the mean score = 70.06 = 70
