Answer:

Last year we had M students.

This year we have N students.

Now, the question ask "by what percentage the number of students grow".

So we are considerating a growth, this means that we must think that M as the 100%.

Then we have that N - M is the difference between the students of last year and this year.

this means that this year we have N - M more students that last year, so the percentage of growth is:

((N - M)/M)*100%

Now you need to replace the values for N and M.

You also can notice that if N is smaller than M, you will have a negative percentage, this means that instead of a growth, we have a decrease in the number of students.

Find the height of a triangle with an area of 42 square inches and base of 7 inches. Use the formula for the area of a triangle
disa [49]
A= 1/2bh

fill in formula with known numbers

42= 1/2(7)h
multiply numerators on right side

42= (1*7)/2h

42= 7/2h
divide both sides by 7/2

42 ÷ 7/2= h
to divide fractions, multiply by reciprocal/inverse of 7/2

42 * 2/7= h
multiply numerators

(42 * 2)/7= h

84/7= h

12 inches= h


ANSWER: The height is 12 inches.

Hope this helps! :)
