8 0

Answer:

80 parrots were purchased.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of parrots be k.

If 20% (or 20/100 = 1/5) flew away and 5% (5/100 = 1/20) died, the remaining parrots will be k – (¹/₅k + ¹/₂₀k) = k – ¼k = ¾k.

Of the remaining, 45% (or 45/100 = 9/20) were sold, which means the total number of sold parrots will be ¾k × ⁹/₂₀ = ²⁷/₈₀k.

The remaining parrots = ¾k – ²⁷/₈₀k = ³³/₈₀k = 33

k = 33 × ⁸⁰/₃₃ = 80 parrots were purchased.

What is the sign of the product (3)(-3)(-2)(4)? (5 points) Select one: a. Positive, because the products (3)(-3) and (-2)(4) are
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:  a. Positive, because the products (3)(-3) and (-2)(4) are negative, and the product of two negative numbers is positive

Step-by-step explanation:  It is also possible to rearrange the factors.

(3)(4) = 12  a positive number.

(-3)(-2) = 6, a positive number. Again "a negative times a negative is a positive"  --Jaime Escalante, <em>Stand and Deliver</em>

Now you have two positive numbers: 12×6 = 72

The product is positive either way.

Select the sentence that represents the equation below.
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Eight less than four times a number is equal to two times the difference of double that same number decreased by three.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

4x−8=2(2x−3)

We will try to translate the given equation in English.

We can see that the variable used is only one. On the left hand side of the equation 8 is being subtracted from 4 times of the variable and on the right hand side 3 is being subtracted from 2 times of variable and then being multiplied by two.

From the given option, correct answer is:

Eight less than four times a number is equal to two times the difference of double that same number decreased by three.
