20% also equals 1/5, right?
So in order to find the total number of turtle nests, just find 5/5, or multiply 15 by 5.
15 x 5 = 75
There were 75 total nests
You would just do 4 x 7, which means there are 28 combinations.
Answer:
12n -5 ≤ 55
Step-by-step explanation:
12 times a number (represented by n) is 12n.
"Decreased by 5" means 5 is subtracted from the product, giving 12n-5.
"Is no more than 55" means "is less than or equal to 55".
Then the expression written using math symbols is ...
12n -5 ≤ 55
