Answer:
4,800 student's actually enroll.
Step-by-step explanation:
40% of 30,000 is 12,000.
40% of 12,000 is 4,800.
Subtract the chance they have of winning from 100%:
100% - 14% = 86% chance of not winning.
Hi there!
10% as a decimal is 0.1
To find the decimal of a percentage, just divide the percentage by 100.
10/100 = 1/10 = 0.1
I hope this helps!
Answer:
The end result is -1/(x + 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the answer to this, we first need to factor the denominator. Since it is a quadratic, we try to find number that multiply to the last term (8) and add to the middle term (9). In this case, the numbers 8 and 1 would work. This allows us to use those numbers in parenthesis along with x as a fully factored form.
x^2 + 9x + 8 = (x + 1)(x + 8)
Now that we have this factored we can take the original equation and factor a -1 out of the top.
(-1)(x + 8)/(x + 1)(x + 8)
Since there is an (x + 8) on the top and bottom, we can cancel those.
-1/(x + 1)
