Aroad crew is widening a street that is 24 m wide. their scale drawing says the new street has to be 125% of the width of the old street. how wide should the new street be? a. 19.2 m b. 28 m c. 30 m d. 300 m

i would first turn the percentage into an decimal by dividing it by 100, or moving the decimal place two left.

125/100 = 1.25

now multiply the original number by 1.25 to get the answer.

24 * 1.25 = 30

the width should be 30 m.

step-by-step explanation:

u = -(6/7)w

step-by-step explanation:

place all values with 'u' on one side of the equation.

4u + 8w = - 3u + 2w

4u + 3u = 2w - 8w

further simplify the equation by solving the addition and subtraction.

7u = - 6w

make 'u' the independent variable by placing its co-efficient on the right-hand side.

u = - (6/7)w
