Answer:
1425 square kilometer.
Step-by-step explanation:
2900 - 8.5% = 2653.5
2653.5 - 8.5% = 2427.9525
2427.9525 - 8.5% = 2221.5765375
2221.5765375 - 8.5% = 2032.74253181
2032.74253181 - 8.5% = 1859.95941661
1859.95941661 - 8.5% = 1701.8628662
1701.8628662 - 8.5% = 1557.20452257
1557.20452257 - 8.5% =1 424.84213815 ≈ 1425
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem above can be solved by using the <em>multiplication operation</em>.
Given: 400 people
8% of the people with green eyes
Let's solve:
Let x be<em><u> the number of people with green eyes.</u></em>
x = 400 x 8%
x = 400 x (0.08)
x = 32
So, the number of people surveyed with green eyes is 32. The rest of the surveyed people (368) have a different eye color.
The answer is x= - 11/ 16
You can check this by plugging in x for -11/16
