Answer:

189 students

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. 2/9 = 6th grade
  2. 2/9 = 42 students
  3. So therefore, 2/9 = 42/x
  4. Let's break down the equation above. The original fraction is 2/9. The numerator represents the 6th grade students, and the denominator represents the total number of students in the school. So, if we expand that to actual numbers in the school, it would be 42 over the total number of students in the school (represented by x).
  5. Let's solve it now in the steps below
  6. Write out the equation: \frac{2}{9} = \frac{42}{x}  
  7. Cross multiply, then divide: 9 × 42 = 378, 378 ÷ 2 = 189
  8. So, the total students in the school are 189 students.

I hope this helps!

A company buys pens at the rate of $7.50 per box for the first 10 boxes, $5.50 per box for the next 10 boxes, and $4.50 per box
photoshop1234 [79]

So it is really easy to solve firstly we can see how much does the first 10 boxes make which makes around 75$ obviously. Secondly 55$ for the next 10 boxes.

So for now we can simply calculate that we have spent around 130$ which means 20 boxes. The remaining money left is 18$ so we can buy 18/4.5 = 4 only 4 boxes with that money. Hence a total of 24 boxes.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

119 or 118.726577

Step-by-step explanation:

We should use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this problem.

a^2+ b^2=c^2

64^2+100^2=c^2

4096+10000=14096

c^2=14096

c=\sqrt{14096}14096

And the root of 14096 is 118.726577.

So the Answer is About 119 meters, or 118.726577

hope this helps!
