Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up "x" as the total number of students. So now we can set up an equation:

40%x+15=x rewritten as:

.4x+15=x Subtract .4x from both sides will give us:

 

15=.6x Now divide each side by .6 to be:

25=x Therefore we know there are 25 students in the class.

Make sense?

Where did we get one?

Answer:

The -1 came from factoring.

The equation is multiplied by 8 because 8 could be pulled from 16x-8.

16 can be divided by 8 2 times and 8 can only divided by 8 once.

so factoring it makes the equation 8(2x-1)

The square is divided into 3 parts.
Lorico [155]
1/3= 5/15
2/5= 6/15

5/15 + 6/15 = 11/15

15/15 - 11/15 = 4/15

Part C= 4/15

Solve for y. Answer to the nearest tenth
AysviL [449]

Answer:

y = 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 secants from an external point to the circle.

Then the product of the external part and the whole of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the whole of the other secant, that is

6(6 + y) = 5(5 + 16)

36 + 6y = 5 × 21 = 105 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

6y = 69 ( divide both parts by 6 )

y = 11.5
