Since percent means per 100, we can set this up as 120%= 120/100

120/100= 12/10

12/10= 6/5

Final answer: 6/5

Enrollment at ELAC decreased by 5%, or 600 people, the year. How many people were enrolled last year?

babymother [125]

Answer:

12,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of people that were enrolled last year.

We have been given that enrollment at ELAC decreased by 5%, or 600 people, the year. We are asked to find the number of people that were enrolled last year.

We can set as equation such that 5% of x equals 600.

$\frac{5}{100}\cdot x=600$

$0.05x=600$

$\frac{0.05x}{0.05}=\frac{600}{0.05}$

$x=12,000$

Therefore, 12,000 people were enrolled last year.

A rectangle has a length that is three feet more than twice it’s width. If the area of the rectangle is 90 square feet, then alg

Mkey [24]

Answer:

$Length=27feet\\Width=12 feet$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the length of the rectangle be 'L'

and, width of the rectangle be 'W'

length=2*Width+3

$L=(2W+3) feet\\\\$

Area of the rectangle= 90 square feet

Area of a rectangle = Length*Width

$90=(2W+3)*W\\\\2W^2+3W=90\\\\2W^2+3W-90=0\\\\$

Using Factorization Method to solve quadratic equation:

$2W^2-12W+15W-90=0$

Taking common from the equation:

$2W(W-12)+15(W-12)=90\\\\(W-12)(2W+15)=0\\\\W-12=0\\\\W=12 feet$

$2W+15=0\\\\2W=-15\\\\W=-7.5 feet$

The Width cannot be negative, therefore Width(W)=12 feet

$Length=2*Width+3\\\\=(12*2)+3\\\\=24+3\\\\=27 feet$

$Length=27feet\\Width=12 feet$

Stephen makes wooden shelves for his room he starts with a board that is 20 feet long.Stephen wants to make the shelves 3/4 foot

jek_recluse [69]

The number of shelves stephen can make is approximately 27

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Stephen makes wooden shelves for his room

Stephen wants to make the shelves 3/4 foot long

He starts with a board that is 20 feet long

To find: number of shelves he can make

So the number of shelves stephen can make can make is found out by dividing 20 feet long board by 3/4 foot long

$\text {number of shelves }=\frac{\text { total length of board stephen has }}{\text { length of each board }}$

$\text {number of shelves }=\frac{20}{3 / 4}=\frac{20}{0.75}=26.6$

So the number of shelves stephen can make is approximately 27
