An international company has 23,200 employees in one country. If this represents 26.7% of the company's employees, how many empl

omeli [17]

Answer:

Total number of employees = 86,891 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = total number of employees

26.7% of x = 23,200

26.7/100 * x = 23,200

0.267 * x = 23,200

0.267x = 23,200

x = 23,200/0.267

x = 86,891.385767790

approximately 86,891 employees

Total number of employees = 86,891 employees

Solve the following absolute value equations. Show the solution set and check your answers. |0.3-3/5k|-0.4=1.2

9966 [12]

Answer:

**The equation is not clear, so I have provided both options**

<h3><u>Option 1</u></h3>

$\left|0.3-\dfrac{3}{5}k\right|-0.4=1.2$

$\implies \left|0.3-\dfrac{3}{5}k\right|=1.6$

<u>Solution 1</u>

$\implies 0.3-\dfrac{3}{5}k=1.6$

$\implies -\dfrac{3}{5}k=1.3$

$\implies k=-\dfrac{13}{6}$

<u>Solution 2</u>

$\implies -(0.3-\dfrac{3}{5}k)=1.6$

$\implies -0.3+\dfrac{3}{5}k=1.6$

$\implies \dfrac{3}{5}k=1.9$

$\implies k=\dfrac{19}{6}$

<h3><u>Option 2</u></h3>

$\left|0.3-\dfrac{3}{5k}\right|-0.4=1.2$

$\implies \left|0.3-\dfrac{3}{5k}\right|=1.6$

<u>Solution 1</u>

$\implies 0.3-\dfrac{3}{5k}=1.6$

$\implies -\dfrac{3}{5k}=1.3$

$\implies -3=6.5k$

$\implies k=-\dfrac{6}{13}$

<u>Solution 2</u>

$\implies -(0.3-\dfrac{3}{5k})=1.6$

$\implies -0.3+\dfrac{3}{5k}=1.6$

$\implies \dfrac{3}{5k}=1.9$

$\implies 3=9.5k$

$\implies k=\dfrac{6}{19}$

kolezko [41]

Answer:

D. 150 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

For be directly proportional, it has to be that as one value increases the other does it equally, so

If 138 pound box has a volume of 23 gallons for 25 gallons ?. For being directly proportional tha value must be higest

138 → 23 $x=\frac{25*138}{23} = 150$

x → 25
