the ratio 6/5 means for every 6 boys there are 5 girls.
Add the ratio: 6+5 = 11
Divide class total by 11: 22/11 = 2
Multiply each ratio number by 2 to find the number of boys and the number of girls:
6 x 2 = 12 boys
5 x 2 = 10 girls.
10 out of the 22 kids are girls.
The probability of picking a girl would be 10/22, which reduces to 5/11
Answer:
x = 1/7
Step-by-step explanation:
23x - 15x = x-1
8x = x - 1
8x - x = 1
7x = 1
x = 1/7
Answer:
B and D
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be equal to the number of drinks Yasmine consumed.
Jose had 2 times that drink so his number of consumed drink would be represented by 2x.
Sally had 3 fewer drink than Jose so her number of consumed drinks would be represented by 2x-3.
Altogether, the three of them consumed 72 drinks so your equation would be:
x+2x+(2x-3)=72
add like terms together:
5x-3=72
have the term with x be alone on one side of the equation, in this case by adding three to both sides:
5x=75
now divide both sides by five for the value of x and your answer is.....
x=15
The third one is the correct graph for the equation
hope it helps !!
