Answer:

28 million college students.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent all college students as x. This means that all part-time college students are \frac{31}{100}x. Because all part-time college students are also equal to 8.6 million, we have 8,600,000=\frac{31}{100}x. To find the number of total college students, or x, we have to multiply by 100/31 to get rid of the fraction on the other side:

8,600,00\cdot\frac{100}{31}=x

The left side of the equation evaluates as 27,741,935.5. Because we are asked to round to the nearest million, we have to round to 28 million, which is the closest.

kvasek [131]

Answer:

18=6b, b=3

Because Mary has 6 times as much as Carlos does, we put the x with 6. 18 is the number that 6x equals. 6*3=18

A triangle has sides with lengths of 65 in 72 in and 97 in is it a right triangle?
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

By pythagoras' theorem,

97^2 = 9409

65^2 + 72^2 = 9409

since 65^2 + 72^2 = 97^2, the triangle is a right angled triangle

This is a question on Pythagoras theorem. If you wish to venture further into it/understand this topic better, you may want to follow my Instagram account (learntionary), where I post some of my own notes on certain topics and also some tips that may be useful to you :)
