Using proportions, it is found that they must win 19 of their next 30 games.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

We want a win-to-loss proportion of 2:1, which is equivalent to a win-to-total proportion of 2:3. We have that:

  • The team will have won 5 + x games.
  • The team will have played 36 games.

Hence:

\frac{5 + x}{36} = \frac{2}{3}

3(5 + x) = 72

15 + 3x = 72

3x = 57

x = 19.

The Rangers must win 19 of their next 30 games.

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

<u>0.765 meters</u> long were the sticks when laid end to end.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rob laid three sticks end to end. The lengths of the sticks were 45 millimeters, 32 centimeters, and 4 decimeters.

Now, to find the length in meters of the sticks when laid end to end.

The lengths of the sticks are:

1st stick - 45 millimeters.

2nd stick - 32 centimeters.

3rd stick - 4 decimeters.

So, we convert the units of sticks into meters by using conversion factor:

1st stick:

1 millimeter = 0.001 meter.

45 millimeters = 0.001 × 45

45 millimeters = 0.045 meter.

2nd stick:

1 centimeter = 0.01 meter.

32 centimeters = 0.01 × 32

32 centimeters = 0.32 meter.

3rd stick:

1 decimeter = 0.1 meter.

4 decimeters = 0.1 × 4

4 decimeters = 0.4 meter.

Now, adding all the three sticks length to get the the length in meters of the sticks when laid end to end:

0.045+0.32+0.4\\\\=0.765\ meters.

Therefore, 0.765 meters long were the sticks when laid end to end.
