Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

40/100 musicians .75*40= 30


30 is to 100

as 38 is to x


30          38

----   =    ------              Cross multiply

100          x


30x=3800

divide by three to get

126 and 2/3

you can't split people, so it would be closer to about 127 students.

Total equation:
2n + 5 = 15

Solving:
2n + 5 = 15
2n = 10
n = 5

Hope this helps!! :)

stepladder [879]

Percy solved the equation by expanding the expression on the left-hand side, and this is incorrect

<h3>How to determine the true solution?</h3>

The equation is given as:

x^2 + 7x + 12 = 12

The first step in solving the equation is to equate the equation to 0.

i.e.

x^2 + 7x + 12 - 12 = 0

This given

x^2 + 7x = 0

From the question, Percy solved the equation by expanding the expression on the left-hand side

Hence, Percy's solution is incorrect

Write an equation of the line that passes through (1,2) and is parallel to the line y = -5x+4
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

y =-5x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -5x + 4

Slope = -5

Parallel lines have same slope

Slope of the parallel line to this line = -5

(1 , 2)

y -y1 =m(x - x1)

y - 2 = -5(x - 1)

y -2 = -5x + 5

   y = -5x + 5 + 2

  y = -5x + 7
