Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
F(x)=1 if x > 1
-1 if x < 1
No, the answer is not D. It's funny how numbers can sometimes confuse us. Let's do a little math, shall we? If there are 75 students in total, and 15 of them are on the student council, we can find the percentage by dividing the number of students on the council by the total number of students and multiplying by 100. So, 15 divided by 75 is 0.2, and when we multiply that by 100, we get 20%. Therefore, the correct answer is A. So don't be fooled by the sneaky trickery of misleading options!
To find the percentage of students on the student council, you need to divide the number of students on the student council by the total number of students and then multiply by 100.
In this case, there are 15 students on the student council out of a total of 75 students. Divide 15 by 75 and multiply by 100 to get the percentage.
(15/75) * 100 = 20
So, the correct answer is A. 20%.
