Answer:
30 is 20% of 150 i.e. 20% of total 150 students in the marching bank play the trumpet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw two number lines:
- One number line to represent number of students from 0 to 150. For convenience, divide the number line into intervals of 15 so that 30 is also present on the line.
- Second number line to represent percentage and divide it in intervals from 1 to 100.
Now, place the other number line just below the other number line and draw a vertical line as shown the attached figure.
We find out that 30 is at 20% of 150.
It means that 20% (30 of total 150) of total 150 students in the marching band, play trumpet.
Answer:
w=2
Step-by-step explanation:
A=length times width (A=lw)
w= l-3
A=10
Substituting in, we get:
10= l(l-3)
Now, solve the equation.
10= -3l
-3l-10=0
(l+2) (l-5)=0 (factoring the equation)
Therefore, l= -2 or 5
Throw out the negative value because a length of rectangle will never be negative.
Now let's solve for width
Remember w=l-3
therefore
(5)-3=2
so, w=2
(honestly, this is easier to just do in your head. But here is the long form math if you happen to run into more complicated problems.)
