Answer:
29,344.87 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Tall Mountain is 8606.37 feet higher than Mt. Might. Let's replace the missing number with x.
Let's set up an equattion:
x = 20,738.5 + 8,606.37
Now let's solve the equation.
20,738.5 + 8,606.37 = 29,344.87
Add feet after the answer.
29,344.87

Step-by-step explanation:
-0.45x + 0.33 = -0.66
First we use the subtraction property of equality to get the x term by itself.
( -0.33 - 0.66 = -0.99)
-0.45x = -0.99
Now we use the division property of equality to get the x term by itself.
(-0.99 ÷ -0.45 = 2.2 Two negatives equals a positive)
x = 2.2
If 60% did not, then 40% did
Set up a proportion.
60%/ 2500 = 40%/x
60% x = 2500 * 40%
x = (40% / 60%) * 2500
x = (0.4 / 0.6) * 2500
x = 1666.667
You have to round this, but which way? I would go down.
You could do this another way. Find 100% first.
60% of x = 2500
x = 2500 / 0.6
x = 4166.666666
That is the total number of people he saw.
Take out the 2500
4166.66666 - 2500 = 1666.6666
You arrive at the same place. Which do you like better?
