The ratio of the number of female attendants to the number of male attendants is 21/17

<h3>Ratio</h3>

  • Amount donated by female attendant = $1200
  • Amount donated by male attendant = $800
  • Average donation = $900

let

  • number of female attendant = x
  • number of male attendant = y

900 = 1200x + 800y / (x + y)

900x + 900y = 1200x + 800y

900x + 1200x = 800y + 900y

2100x = 1700y

x : y = 2100 / 1700

x : y = 21 ; 17

What is the weight of a square if a triangle weighs 4 grams? Explain your reasoning
stellarik [79]

Answer:

8 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The balance is in equilibrium, so the weights of the two sides are equal.

Let the weight of a square be s.

Left side: 2s + 4

Right side: s + 3(4) = s + 12

The weights are equal, so we set the two expressions equal.

2s + 4 = s + 12

s = 8

Answer: The weight of a square is 8 grams.

Paul [167]
The whiteboards she bought cost $35, and she spent a total of $51.20, subtract to find out the total amount she spent on posters:

\sf 51.20-35=16.2

So she spent a total of $16.20 on posters, now divide by the amount one poster costs to find out how many posters she bought.

\sf 16.2\div 5.4=\boxed{\sf 3}

So she bought 3 posters.
