Answer:

154 students

Step-by-step explanation:

First get the total number of students .

This can be gotten by

12% of A = 21

Where A represents the total number of students.

12% represents the % of A that chose to study French and 21 is the number of students that studied French .

Therefore,

12% /100% x A = 21

0.12 x A = 21

Divide both sides by 0.12

0.12/0.12 x A = 21/0.12

A = 175

The total number of students is 175.

If 21 chose to study French their freshman year ,number of students that chose not to will be total number of students minus number of those who chose to study French.

That’s

175 - 21

= 154

154 students chose not to study French their freshman year

Answer:

  10

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is useful.

  d = √((x2 -x1)^2 +(y2 -y1)^2)

  d = √((7 -1)^2 +(12 -4)^2) = √(6^2 +8^2) = √(36 +64) = √100

  d = 10

The distance between P and Q is 10.

<em>Additional comment</em>

You may recognize the run : rise ratio of 6 : 8 = 3 : 4. This suggests a 3-4-5 right triangle with a scale factor of 2. If you're familiar with that Pythagorean triple, you can write down the answer as soon as you see the rise and run numbers.

Jamie has a piece of wood that is 6/8 inches long. He cuts the wood into pieces that are ¼ inches long. How many pieces of wood
pashok25 [27]
Answer: three pieces.

The piece of wood is 6/8 inches long - this fraction can be simplified to 3/4 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2.

Thus, he cuts a piece of wood that is 3/4 inches long into 1/4 inch pieces.

1 goes into 3 three times, so the piece of wood can be cut into three 1/4-inch pieces.
