Hi there!
Let t be the number of teachers
Let a be the number of administrators
t+a=24
35,000t+40,000a=860,000
a=24-t
35,000t+40,000(24-t)=860,000
35,000t+960,000-40,000t=860,000
35,000t-40,000t=860,000-960,000
-5,000t=-100,000
t=-100,000/-5,000
t=20
a=24-t
a=24-20
a=4
Therefore there are 4 administrators and 20 teachers.
Hope this helps!
There are at least a few ways to do it, one of them being:
$8 - $5 = $3, so we may want to find out how much percent of 5 is 3.
3 = x% of 5
3 = x/100 * 5
3 = x/20 * 1
3 = x/20 / * 20 (both sides)
x = 60 [percent]
So now we know that 3 is 60% of 5. It also means that the increase from $5 to $8 was by <u>60%</u><u />.
The way I would approach such a question is to put it into equations.
My first equation would be 16x+19y=478 which represents $16 on ski's per person and $19 on snowboards must add up to $478
My second would be x+y=28 because the number of skis and snowboards rented must add up to 28 so each person has one item.
Next you solve them simultaniously. Gonna use elimination
16x+19y=478 (1)
<span>x+y=28 (2) </span>
16x+16y=448 (3 = equation 2 * 16)
(1)-(3) => 3y=30 y = 10.
So now we know that 10 people rented snow boards. Just sub that into eq (2) and get x = 18. So 10 people got snow boards and 18 ski's.
To check, 10x19 = 190
16x18= 228
190+228=478 which works out perfectly!
Answer: <u>the rotation of earth on its axis and revolution</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
The earth revolves round the sun and rotates round its own axis. The rotation of the earth causes day and night. The part of the earth which faces the sun experiences the day time whereas the part away from sun gets no sun light and hence the night. ... The axis of earth's rotation is tilted at 23.5 degrees.
