Hakima saves 560. Divide the 336 by 3. you get 112 so you multiply that by 5
Answer:
There are 232 students at the school.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent the number of students at the school. We are told ...
174 = 75% × s
174/0.75 = s = 232 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of s
There are 232 students at the school.
Answer:
156.86
Step-by-step explanation:
136.40 + 15% is 20.46 added to 136.40 is 156.86
Answer:
2 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Here the area and the lengths of the two parallel sides of this trapezoid are given:
A = 7m^2, b1 = 3 m and b2 = 4 m. What's missing is the width of the trapezoid.
First we write out the formula for the area of a trapezoid:
b1 + b2
A = --------------- * w, where w represents the width of the figure.
2
We need to solve this for the width, w. Multiplying both sides of the above equation by
2
------------
b1 + b2
results in
2A
------------ = w
b1 + b2
Substituting 7 m^2 for A, 3 m for b1 and 4 m for b2 results in
2(7 m^2) 14 m^2
w = ------------------ = ---------------- = 2 m
(3 + 4) m 7 m
The missing dimension is the width of the figure. This width is 2 m.
Using the quadratic formula works but if you know there are 2 answers (highest power of problem tells you how many solutions) then
10x^2 = 5x
So either x = 0, giving 0=0. Or divide by 5x
2x = 1
x = 0.5
