The percent of working students increased 12.2% to 32.9%, what was the percent prior to the increase?

for a it would be 24 children.

for b i don't understand the question. is it saying for each individual person they pick 5 reds to 7 greens or is it the whole group. clarify and i hope this can you.

step-by-step explanation:

this is a direct variation proportion. y = kx

y is the total amount due, k is the constant of variation, and x is the number of texts sent.

plug in the 3.20 and the 16 to solve for the "k". this is the constant of proportionality. it is the value that will not change.

3.20 = k(16). solving you get $.20 per text.

the equation would then be y = .20x

b

step-by-step explanation:

multiply terms on numerator/ denominator by (x - 1)

= ← distribute numerator/ denominator

= ← simplify

=

= → b
