A school had 180 boys and 240 girls attending
(a) What is the ratio of boys to girls?
(b) What is the ratio of girls to boys?
(c) What is the ratio of students to boys?
(d) What is the ratio of girls to students?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 3 : 4

b) 4 : 3

c) 7 : 3

d) 4 : 7

Step-by-step explanation:

(just a side note: you can write ratios in fraction form as well!)

To find the ratio between boys to girls, we would write it like this:

180/240 or  180 : 240 or  180 to 240

Although that is right, that isn't simplified.

Thus, we need to find a common factor that both the numerator and denominator share!

180 and 240 are both divisible by 60!

  180 ÷ 60 = 3

  240 ÷ 60 = 4

Therefore, you would get a simplified ratio of 3 : 4! For every 3 boys. there are 4 girls!

For part b, you simply switch the 4 and 3 around so you get 4 : 3. For every 4 girls, there are 3 boys.

Now part c involves the total amount of students...

Basically, add the number of boys and the number of girls together, and you would get 420.

    420 : 120 shows the amount of students there are to boys...but it is not in its simplest form!!

Like we did before, we have to find a common factor between the two...which is 60!

 420 ÷ 60 = 7

 120 ÷ 60 = 3

Thus, there are 7 students for every 3 boys (7 : 3)

Finally, part d! Simply the ratio:

   420 : 240

Divide both by 60 and...

You get 4 :7! For every 4 girls, there are 7 students

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions :D

Answer 2

Answer:

(a) 3:4

(b) 4:3

(c) 7:3

(d) 4:7

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) 3:4

180:240 = 3:4 (after simplification)

(b) 4:3

240:180 = 4:3 (after simplification)

(c) 7:3

Total number of students = 240 + 180 = 420

420:180 = 7:3 (after simplification)

(d) 4:7

Total number of students = 240 + 180 = 420

240: 420 = 4:7  (after simplification)

The area in square feet of a rectangular field is x^{2}-110x+2800. The width, in feet, ix x-40. What is the length, in feet?

Answers

Answer: I changed 2 items ({2} and ix), so review carefully. The length is (x-70) feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = x^2 - 110x+2800

Width = (x-40)

Area = Width x Length

(x^2 - 110x+2800) = (x-40)*L

L = (x^2 - 110x+2800)/(x-40)

L = (x - 40)(x-70)/(x-40) Factor the numerator.

L = (x - 70) feet

What is the quotient?

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \frac{7}{17} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

(-14) ÷ (-34)

14/34

= /17

The quotient of the division will be 0.41. And the solution of the division (−14) by (−34) would be 7/17  as a simplified fraction.

How can we interpret the division?

When 'a' is divided by 'b', then the result we get from the division is the part of 'a' that each one of 'b' items will get. Division, thus, can be interpreted as equally dividing the number that is being divided in total x parts, where x is the number of parts the given number is divided.

We need to divide the mixed fraction with integers, So

(-14) ÷ (-34)

The common denominator we can calculate as the least common multiple of the denominators then we get

14/34

= 7/ 17

= 0.41

Thus, the quotient of the division will be 0.41

Therefore, the solution of the division (−14) by (−34) would be 7/ 17  as a simplified fraction.

What are the range of all integers greater than 40 and less than 99 that are multiples of 3?

Answers

We want to find the total number of integers that are larger than 40 and smaller than 99 that also are multiples of 3.

The answer is 18.

We can solve this just by counting.

The first multiple of 3 larger than 40 is:

3*14 = 42

Now we know that 99 is also a multiple of 3 and that the multiples of 3 are separated by a distance of 3 units, then the total number of multiples of 3 between 42 and 99 is given by:

(99 - 42)/3 = 19

But we need to remove 1, because we used 99 and we have the restriction that our numbers must be "smaller" than 99.

Then we have a total of 18 multiples of 3 between 40 and 99.

Over 25.5 days a ponds water level changed by a average of -0.32 centimeter each day what was the total change in the water level

A:10.55
B:-8.16
C:8.16
D:-10.55

Answers

If over 25.5 days a ponds water level changed by a average of -0.32 centimeter each day the total change in the water level will be:  C:8.16

Centimeter each day=-0.32

Days of changed in water level=25.5 days

Now let determine total change in the water level

Total change=25.5 days × (-0.32)

Total change=8.16 centimeter

Inconclusion if over 25.5 days a ponds water level changed by a average of -0.32 centimeter each day the total change in the water level will be:  C:8.16

Answers

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function must have the range  -3 to 5.

2x^2 - 4x - 30

= 2(x^2 - 2x - 15)

= 2(x + 3)(x - 5)

so the critical points are -3 and 5.

When x = -2 f(x) = 2* 1 * -7 = -14 <= 0

when x = 4 f(x) = 2 * 7 * -1 <= 0.

when  x= 0  f(x) < 0

So its the last option.
