Answer:

12,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the current employees be x

65% increase in number = 0.65x

If the total number of employees after the increase is 20,460, then;

x + 0.65x = 20,460

1.65x = 20,460

x = 20,460/1.65

x = 12,400

Hence the current number of employees is 12,400

In parallelogram MNPQ, side MN is seven inches longer than twice the length of side NP. If the perimeter of MNPQ is 68 inches, t
Svetlanka [38]

Answer: NP = 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram, the opposite sides are equal.

If the length of the longer side is MN, it means that the length of the two opposite longer sides is 2MN.

If the length of the shorter side is NP, it means that the length of the two opposite shorter sides is 2NP.

The perimeter is 2MN + 2NP

If the perimeter of MNPQ is 68 inches, it means that

2MN + 2NP = 68- - - - - - - - - - - -1

In parallelogram MNPQ, side MN is seven inches longer than twice the length of side NP. It means that

MN = 2NP + 7- - - - - - - - - - -2

Substituting equation 2 into equation 1, it becomes

2(2NP + 7) + 2NP = 68

4NP + 14 + 2NP = 68

4NP + 2NP = 68 - 14

6NP = 54

NP = 54/6

NP = 9 inches

What value of X makes the equation true -7x - (-5-x) = -9(2x-1) -1
Bond [772]

Answer:

x = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x - (-5-x) = -9(2x-1) -1

-7x + 5 + x = -18x + 9 - 1

combine like terms:

-6x + 5 = -18x + 8

add 18x to each side of the equation:

12x + 5 = 8

subtract 5 from each side:

12x = 3

divide both sides by 12:

x = 3/12 = 1/4
