If 100 students make up 40% of the 6th grade population, then 50 students make up 20% of the 6th grade population. 20% × 5 makes 100% so if your multiply 50 by 5 you'd get your population.
50 × 5 = 250 sixth-graders
Answer:
4.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
First turn it into a fraction. 60/1240. Than we can turn it into an equation 60/1240=x/100. Since 100 is the percent and x is what we need to find. And you now solve to get x=150/31 or 4.8
Jennifer SHE MAKES 12 Minutes
Max makes 11
And Joyce 10
Answer- Jennifer
Answer:
f(x) = 12x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
We need a linear equation in the slope-intercept form.
y = mx + b
where y = total pay, m = hourly salary, x = number of hours worked, and b = y-intercept, or initial value
Let's look in the table.
1 hour: $22
2 hours: $34
The difference in pay between 1 hour and 2 hours is $34 - $22 = $12.
The difference in time between 1 hour and 2 hours is 1 hour.
In 1 hour he earns $12. That means the slope is 12.
We know he earns $22 for working a total of 1 hour.
Start at 1 hour and $22 on the table.
Subtract 1 hour from 1 hour to get 0 hours.
Subtract $12 form $22 to get $10.
That means for 0 hours he gets $10. b = 10
The equation is
y = 12x + 10
In function form, we have:
f(x) = 12x = 10
Don't know if it's right, but do let me know! use percentage to visualise your workings. :)
