Answer:
111 girls
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Boys: Every 17 outdoor ≈ 20 indoor
Girls: 3:2 outdoor to indoor
First, we'll determine the ratio of outdoor to indoor for boys;
Recall that;
17 choose indoor while 20 choose outdoor;
The ratio of outdoor to indoor is;
20 : 17
Convert to fraction:
Let x represent number of boys that choose indoor when 85 boys chose outdoor;
The ratio of outdoor to indoor is;
x : 85
Convert to fraction
Equate both fractions
Multiply both sides by 85
This implies that when 85 chose outdoor, 100 chose indoor for boys;
Total = 100 + 85
Total = 185 boys surveyed
<em>Recall that the question says the same number of boys and girls were surveyed</em>
This implies that
Total Girls Surveyed = 185
For the girl ratio;
Outdoor to Indoor= 3:2
Number of girls that chose outdoor is as follows;
<em>Hence, the number of girls that chose outdoor is 111</em>
Answer:
The original duration of the tour = 20 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:
Total expenses for the tour = $360
Let the original tour duration be for days.
So, for days the total expense = $360
<em>Thus the daily expense in dollars can be given by</em> =
Tour extension and effect on daily expenses.
The tour is extended by 4 days.
<em>Tour duration now</em> = days
On extension, his daily expense is cut by $3
<em>New daily expense in dollars </em>=
Total expense in dollars can now be given as:
Simplifying by using distribution (FOIL).
We know total expense remains the same which is = $360.
So, we have the equation as:
Multiplying each term with to remove fractions.
Subtracting both sides
Dividing each term with -3.
Adding both sides.
Solving using quadratic formula.
For a quadratic equation:
Plugging in values from the equation we got.
So, we have
and
and
∴ and
Since number of days cannot be negative, so we take as the solution for the equation.
Thus, the original duration of the tour = 20 days
