there are 148 juniors and 272 seniors attending prom this year. if there must be three chaperones per 60 students, how many chap

valkas [14]

21 chaperones are needed for 420 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of juniors = 148

No. of seniors = 272

Total = 148+272 = 420 students

3 chaperones = 60 students

1 chaperone = $\frac{60}{3}=20\ students$

Ratio of chaperon to students = 1:20

Let,

x be the number of chaperons for 420 students.

Ration of chaperones to students = x:420

Using proportion

Ratio of chaperones to students :: Ratio of chaperons to students

$1:20::x:420$

Product of mean = Product of extreme

$20*x=420*1\\20x=420\\$

Dividing both sides by 20

$\frac{20x}{20}=\frac{420}{20}\\x=21$

21 chaperones are needed for 420 students.

What is the solution set of 2x(x - 1) = 3?

garik1379 [7]

First you must distribute the 2x to the numbers inside the parentheses

(2x * x) + (2x * -1) = 3

$2x^{2}$ - 2x = 3

To make this a quadratic equation you can solve bring the 3 over to the left side of the equation by subtracting it to both sides

$2x^{2}$ - 2x - 3 = 0

Use the quadratic equation to solve this (image of the quadratic equation is below)

Remember that quadratic functions are set up like so:

$ax^{2} +bx +c = 0$

That means that in this equation...

a = 2

b = -2

c = -3

^^^Plug these numbers into the quadratic equation and solve...

$\frac{2+/-\sqrt{(-2)^{2}-4(2)(-3)}}{2(2)}$

$\frac{2 +/-\sqrt{4+24}}{4}$

$\frac{2+/-\sqrt{28} }{4}$

$\frac{2+/-2\sqrt{7} }{4}$

$\frac{1+/-\sqrt{7} }{2}$

Keep in mind that +/- is ±

$\frac{1+\sqrt{7} }{2}$

$\frac{1-\sqrt{7} }{2}$
