Simple,

to figure this out, first, cross multiply,

$\frac{7}{28} = \frac{25}{x}$

7*x=7x
and
28*25=700

Which leaves you 7x=700

Now, divide...

$\frac{7x}{7} = \frac{700}{7}$

x=100

Thus, your answer.

Well, I would do cross multiplication for this problem
7 25
---- -----
28 x

You would get this equation,
7x = 700

Then, solve that by using division
7x = 700
--- -------
7 7

700 / 7 = 100

Hope this helps

5/8 of the 64 musicians in a music contest are guitarists. Some of the guitarists play jazz solos, and the rest play classical s

motikmotik

The first thing we must do for this case is find the number of total guitarists.

We have then:

$(\frac{5}{8}) * (64) = 40$

We now look for the relationship between the number of guitarists playing jazz alone to the total number of guitarists.

We have then:

$\frac{x}{40} = \frac{1}{4}$

Where,

x: number of guitarists playing jazz alone

From here, we clear the value of x.

$x = (\frac{1}{4}) * (40)\\x = 10$

Then, the number of guitarists who play classical solo is:

$40 - 10 = 30$

Answer:

30 guitarists play classical solos in the contest

A test was given to a group of students. The grades and gender are summarized below A B C TotalMale 5 9 2 16Female 7 11 12 30Tot

faust18 [17]

Probability that the student got a 'C' GIVEN they are female = number of females that got a C in the test/number of females

From the information given,

number of females that got a C in the test = 12

number of females = 30

Thus,

Probability that the student got a 'C' GIVEN they are female = 12/30

We would simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 6. Thus,

Probability that the student got a 'C' GIVEN they are female = 2/5

Answer:

p = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

$x^2+(p-3)y^2-4x+6y-16=0$

<u>Standard equation of a circle:</u>

$(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2$

(where $(a,b)$ is the centre of the circle, and $r$ is the radius)

If you expand this equation, you will see that the coefficient of $y^2$ is always one.

Therefore, $p-3=1$

$\implies p=1+3=4$

<u>Additional information</u>

To rewrite the given equation in the standard form:

$\implies x^2+y^2-4x+6y-16=0$

$\implies x^2-4x+y^2+6y=16$

$\implies (x-2)^2-4+(y+3)^2-9=16$

$\implies (x-2)^2+(y+3)^2=16+4+9$

$\implies (x-2)^2+(y+3)^2=29$

So this is a circle with centre (2, -3) and radius √29
