Answer:

Option C. \frac{3}{8} × b = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

On a restaurant sign, 14 light bulbs must be replaced. These light bulbs represent \frac{3}{8} of the total number of light bulbs n the sign

We can write it as ⇒ \frac{3}{8} of total number of bulbs = 14

\frac{3}{8} × b = 14

from this equation we can determine the value of b.

Therefore, option c will be the answer.

Solve the inequality for x. Show each step of the solution.10x > 2(8x – 3) – 18
Luden [163]

Answer: x<4

Given the inequality:

10x>2(8x-3)-18

We want to solve the inequality for x.

First, distribute the bracket on the right side of the inequality.

\begin{gathered} 10x>2(8x)-2(3)-18 \\ 10x>16x-6-18 \\ 10x>16x-24 \end{gathered}

Next, subtract 10x from both sides of the inequality.

\begin{gathered} 10x-10x>16x-10x-24 \\ 0>6x-24 \end{gathered}

Add 24 to both sides of the inequality.

\begin{gathered} 0+24>6x-24+24 \\ 24>6x \end{gathered}

Divide both sides of the inequality by 6.

\begin{gathered} \frac{24}{6}>\frac{6x}{6} \\ 4>x \\ \implies x

The solution to the inequality is x<4.

He sum of three consecutive integers is −369−369. find the three integers.
Alinara [238K]
N + (n+1) + (n+2) = -369
3n + 3 = -369
3n = -366
n = -122

so the three consecutive integers are : -124 ; -123 ; -122

The lengths of two sides of a right triangle are 12 inches and 15 inches. What is the difference between the two possible length
Lena [83]
In the problem, two legs measurement were given such as:
Leg 1 = 12 inches
Leg 2 = 15 inches

We need to solve for the third leg. Since it is a right triangle, we can use Pythagorean theorem in solving the missing leg:
c²=b²+a²

When we assume that the third leg is the "c", we can for the value such as:
c² = 12²+15²
c=19.21

When we assume that the third is either "a" or "b":
15² =a² + 12²
a=9

Then, the possible measurement of the third leg is 9 or 19.21.
The difference between the two possible answer is shown below:
Difference = 19.21 -9 = 10.21
Difference =10.21

Answer:

The answer to your questions is: 25 new teachers

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

# of students = 2000

ratio = 3:80 teachers to students

New teachers = ?

Process

I suggest to use rule of three to solve this problem

                     3 teachers ----------------  80 students

                      x                ----------------  2000 students

                  x = (2000 x 3) / 80 = 75 teachers

               Number of initial teachers = 75

The ratio change to 1:20

                     1 teacher -------------------  20 students

                     x             -------------------   2000 students

                     x = (2000 x 1) / 20

                    x = 100 teachers

Number of new teachers = 100 - 75 = 25
