There are 600 students including the seventh and eighth graders at the party.
This problem uses the concept of percentages to define the conditions that are laid in front of us.
Let the original number of students be S , and the number of seventh graders be = 0.60S
We know that percent is used to convey the mathematical term of a fraction multiplied by 100.
Total students after 20 eighth graders arrive = S + 20
And we have that
Number of seventh graders / total number of students = 58%
.60S / [ S + 20 ] = .58 we multiply both sides by S + 20
0.60S =0 .58 [ S + 20]
.60S = .58S + 11.6 we subtract 0.58S from both the sides
0.02S = 11.6 we divide both the sides by .02
S = 11/6 / 0.02 = 580
So the total number of students = 580 + 20 = 600 .
Hence there are 600 students at the party at that time.

Answer:
1/2 cup per friend
Step-by-step explanation:
He has 1 gallon of fruit sorbet to serve to 32 friends
Note that:
1 US gallon of water (gal) = 16.00 US cups of water (cup)
16 cups/1 gallon x 1 gallon/32 friends
1/2 cup per friend
Veronica traveled at 85 miles for 6 days and 52 miles on the final day making the total number of days traveled 7 days
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Veronica traveled 562 miles to Venice, Florida
She drove 85 miles every day
Let "d" be the number of days she drove 85 miles per day
On the last day of her trip she only drove 52 miles
Therefore, we frame a equation as,
Total miles = 85 miles every day for "d" days + last day
Total miles = 85(d) + 52
Total miles = 85d + 52
562 = 85d + 52
85d = 562 - 52
85d = 510
d = 6
She traveled at 85 miles for 6 days and 52 miles on the final day making the total number of days traveled 7
