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
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(-3/4)x + 9 = (-1/2)x + 8
9 - 8 = (-1/2)x + (3/4)x
1 = (1/4)x
x = 4
y = (-3/4)4 + 9
y = -3 + 9
y = 6
It’s 5,905 bc you need to add all of you distilled water to know if you have enough
