Last year, 120 students were sick at school. This year, 20% fewer students are sick. How many students are sick this year?

1 answer:

3 0

First find how many students are sick the second year:
0.20 × 120 = 24
Then all you need to do is subtract:
120 - 24 = 96
So the number of students that got sick this year is:
96 students

In trapezoid RTUW, V is the midpoint of segment UW, and S is the midpoint of segment RT. Find UT.

andrezito [222]

The line VS is middle line of that trapezoid, so you know that it is

VS= (WR+UT)/2

so we will get that it is:

<span>40= (x^2+2 +2x^2+3)/2
x = 5

Therefore,

x^2 + 2
5^2 + 2
25 +2
