Answer:

2,500 students

Step-by-step explanation:

50% of 20,000 is the amount of students that were accepted. That makes 10,000 students accepted. 25% of 10,000 is the amount enrolled. 25% is 1/4. So 1/4 of 10,000 is 2,500. So 2,500 students enrolled in that university.

Table of inches and centimeters

TEA [102]

If you compare table values to answer choices, you can see right away that several don't work. The number of centimeters is greater than the number of inches, so adding to or multiplying the number of centimeters by some number more than 1 will not give you the smalller number that is inches.

While it may work for the first number (5 inches) to add 7.7 to get the first number of centimeters (12.7), you have to know that you can only add like to like. You can only add inches to inches (getting a result of inches), or centimeters to centimeters (getting a result of centimeters). From the point of view of the units involved, it is nonsensical to add a pure number to a number of inches and expect to get a number of centimeters.

So, we're down to the second choice:

- The number of inches is multiplied by 2.54 to find the number of centimeters.

_____

To find the pattern in the table, you can ...

observe that the inch values differ by 1
observe that the centimeter values differ by 2.54
realize that the constant differences mean the relation between inches and centimeters is linear, and that a change in an inch value of 1 inch is multiplied by 2.54 to find the corresponding change in centimeter value.

_____

I don't know what the first step in your problem solving process is supposed to be. In my problem solving process, the first step is always to look at what you are given. The next step is look at what you are being asked for.

Last week, the price of cherries at the corner deli was $4.99 per pound. This week, cherries at the same deli are on sale at a 1

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The price for 3.75 pounds of cherries is $17.775.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price las week was $ 4.99 and it got a discount of 15% for this week, this means that the price for this week is 100% of the one prior minus 15%, therefore it is 85% of the last price. We need to calculate the price per pound with this discount as shown below:

$\text{this week} = \text{last week}*\frac{95}{100}\\\\\text{this week} = 4.99*0.95 = 4.74 \text{ per pound}\\$
