100% - 85% = 15%

So 15% said that it does NOT make them nervous.
We know this equals 450 people.

---> 15% of X = 450
---> 0.15X = 450
---> X = 450/0.15
---> X = 3000

Therefore a total of 3000 people were polled

Genelle is paid $1,122.38 semimonthly. What is her average monthly net or take home pay ?
sveta [45]

Answer: $2244.76

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, <em>semimonthly </em>means that she is paid the amount of $1,122.38 twice a month. I am making the assumption that taxes have already been taken out of this amount, and the amount listed above is how much she will take home. I then multiplied $1,122.38 × 2 which equaled $2244.76. This is how much Genelle will take home monthly.

In the United States 5 million Farmers provide food for 260 million people
ycow [4]
If I am understanding the question correctly, farmers make up .02% (rounded to the nearest hundredth, full answer is .0192307) of the population. I calculated this by dividing 5,000,000 by 260,000,000. I then moved my decimal over 2 places to the right to convert it to a percent.

henley needs to calculate the base of a trapezoid, b, given the area, a, in inches. She need to rearrange the formula a=16(b+4).
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

b = (a/16) - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 16(b + 4)

a = 16b + 64

16b + 64 = a

16b = a - 64

16b/16 = (a/16) - 64/16

b = (a/16) - 4
