Answer: the percent of study group students from outside the state is 13%
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of students in the young woman's study group that are from the town where the young woman's school is located is 7%
The total number of students in the young woman's study group that are from in-state (but not from the school's town) is 80%.
Since the rest are from outside the state, the percent of study group students from outside the state would be
100 - (80 + 7) = 100 - 87 = 13%

Step-by-step explanation:
;)
First we will find out the values of a
a/4=b/7
a=4b/7
Now
(a-b)/b
{4b/7-b}/b
(4b-7b)/7b
-3b/7b
-3/7
Answer:
8 pounds of peanuts, 6 pounds of raisins and 6 pounds of chocolate chips
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of pounds of peanuts and y be the number of pounds of raisins and chocolate chips.
Peanuts cost $2 per pound, then x pounds cost $2x.
Raisins cost $2.50 per pound, then y pounds cost $2.50y.
Chocolate chips cost $4 per pound, then y pounds cost $4y.
In total, x+y+y=20 and those 20 pounds cost
2x+2.50y+4y=20·2.75.
Solve the system of two equations:

From the first equation:

Substitute x into the second equation:
