Answer:

40 students

Step-by-step explanation:

16 = 40%

Divide by two to get 20% = 8

Then multiply by 5 to get 40 = 100%

There’s other ways to do this, BUT this is the way that I solve it.

Solve for x<br> Urgent need help
fiasKO [112]
I believe you need to solve this using the quadratic formula!
To begin, this is what it is:
x= -b ± <span>√ b^2 - 4ac / 2a
Just plug in what you have in your problem...
2 being a, 13 being b, and -24 being c.
So we get:
x= -13 </span>± <span>√13^2 - 4(2)(-24) / 2(2)
x= -13 </span><span>± √169 - 8 (-24) / 4</span>
<span>x= -13 <span>± √169 + 192 / 4</span>
x= -13 </span>± √<span>361 / 4
The square root of 361 is 19.
So you have: -13 </span><span>± 19 / 4.
Here's where you take the equation </span>-13 <span>± 19 and put the addition and subtraction sign to use.
-13 - 19 = -32
and
-13 + 19 = 6
Now all is left to do is divide the two numbers by 4.
-32/4 = -8
and
6/4 = 3/2

x = -8, 3/2</span>

What is the value of y in this system of equations?
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

-21

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x + 2y = -18.........(i)

-3x - 2y = 54...........(ii)

add equ.(ii) to equ. (i)

(-6x + [-3x]) + (2y + [-2y]) = -18 + 54

-9x = 36

x = -4

sub x= -4 into equ (i)

-6(-4) +2y = -18

24 + 2y = -18

24 +18 = -2y

42 = -2y

y = -21
