Among the eighth-graders in micheal's school, 70% have siblings. the eighth-grade class is 5/6 the size of the seventh-grade class. if 112 eighth-graders have siblings, how many students are in the seventh grade a) 128 b) 134 c) 160 d) 192

OK so if 70% of students in 8th grade have siblings and 112 8th graders have siblings, then:

0.7(total 8th graders) = 112

total 8th graders = 112/0.7

total 8th graders = 160

And since the number of 8th graders is 5/6 the size of the 7th grade class:

5/6(7th grade class) = 160

5(7th grade class) = 960

7th grade class = 192.

The correct answer is D) 192.

problem:

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this !

5x+10 is the correct one

hope this
