Answer:
20 students
Step-by-step explanation:
If the class decreased by 15%, the students that she has now (17) represents a percentaje of:
100% - 15% = 85%
so<u> the 17 students are 85% of what she had</u>:
Students Percentage
17 ⇒ 85%
and we are looking for how many students she had 2 years ago, thus we are looking for the <u>100%</u> of students (the original number of studens). If we represent this number by x:
Students Percentage
17 ⇒ 85%
x ⇒ 100%
and we solve this problem using the <u>rule of three</u>: multiply the cross quantities on the table( 17 and 100) and then divide by the remaining amount (85):
x = 17*100/85
x = 1700/85
x=20
2 years ago she had 20 students

Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have equal slopes.
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
L₁ is y = 5x + 1 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 5
L₂ is 2y - 10x + 3 = 0 ( subtract - 10x + 3 from both sides )
2y = 10x - 3 ( divide all terms by 2 )
y = 5x - 
← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 5
Since L₁ and L₂ have equal slopes then they are parallel lines

Answer:
5.625 or 5-5/8 or 45/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve using Similar triangles again
ratio of 4:7.5
3/x=4/7.5 cross multiply
22.5=4x
x=22.5/4=5.625=5-5/8=45/8
