Mr .Rowley has 16 homework papers and (2 exit tickets to return. Ms. Alvera has 64 homework papers and 60 exit

1 answer:

4 0

The ratio of of number of homework papers to number of exit tickets of Mr Rowley and Ms. Alvera are not equivalent.

<h3>Ratio</h3>

A ratio is a number representing a comparison between two named things. It is also the relative magnitudes of two quantities usually expressed as a quotient.

Mr Rowley:

Homework papers = 16
Tickets to return = 2

Ratio of number of homework papers to number of exit tickets = 16 : 2

= 16 / 2

= 8 / 1

= 8 : 1

Ms Alvera:

Homework papers = 64
Tickets to return = 60

Ratio of number of homework papers to number of exit tickets = 64 : 60

= 64/60

= 16 / 15

= 16 : 15

Therefore, the ratio of of number of homework papers to number of exit tickets of Mr Rowley and Ms. Alvera are not equivalent.

Cynthia Besch wants to buy a rug for a room that is 19 ft wide and 32 ft long. She wants to leave a uniform strip of floor aroun

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The rug should be 15 ft wide and 28 ft long.

Step-by-step explanation:

I have attached a figure that represents the situation.

The the rug is $l$ by $h$ , the width of the strip of floor is $w$ .

We are told that Cynthia can only afford 420 square feet of carpeting; therefore, it must be that

$l*h=420$ (this says the area of the rug must be 420 square feet)

From the figure we see that

$l= 32-2w$

$h=19-2w$

Therefore,

$l*h=420\\\\(32-2w)(19-2w)=420$

We expand this equation and get:

$4w^2-102w+608=420\\\\4w^2-102w+188=0$

using the quadratic equation we get two solutions:

$w=2\\w=23.5$

since the second solution, namely $w=23.5$ , is larger than one of the dimensions of the room (is greater than 19 ft) it cannot be the width of the strip; therefore, we take $w=2$ to be our solution.

Now we find the dimensions of the rug:

$l=32-2(2)=28\\\\h=19-2(2)=15$

The rug is 15 ft wide and 28 ft long.

Kaitlin buys 9/10 of a pound of orange slices. She eats 1/3 of them and divides the rest equally into 3 bags. How much is in eac

frozen [14]

I found how to solve this by pretending the /10 wasn't there and divided 9/3= 3. Next, I subtracted 9-3=6, and because she is splitting 6 into 3 bags she will have to divide 6/3= 2. So in each bag there will be 2/10 pound of orange slices.
