If 3/8 ARE wearing white schoes
Then 5/8 AREN'T wearing white shoes 
because

8/8 - 3/8 = 5/8
8/8 is the same as 1

Therefore, 
5/8 x 216/1 = y
If this is mental maths then,

You can cancel the 216 by 8 because the denominator of 5/8 is 8 to make 27

Therefore, the answer is 135

First, you need to turn 3/8 in to a decimal. You can do that by dividing 3 by 8. You should get .375 now multiply that with 216. you should get 81. That means 81 kids are wearing white shoes. To find how many are not wearing white shoe, subtract 81 from 216. That gives you 135. 135 students are not wearing white shoes.

What is the solution to -3/4 x + 2 ≤ -7 ?
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

x ≥ 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: subtract 2 from both sides

Now you have; -3/4 x ≤ -9

Step 2: divide both sides by -3/4

Now you have x ≥ 12

(when dividing an inequality by a negative you have to flip the sign)

Therefore the answer is x ≥ 12

You roll a number cube find the probability. P(3 or 4)
____ [38]
Say the cube has sides numbered 1-6 that means there are 6 possible outcomes. 3 and 4 are only two possible outcomes so the probability of that is 2:6. Simply 1:3 or 33%

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf x \approx 1.9}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find x, a missing side in a triangle.

This is a right triangle because there is a small square in the corner representing a 90 degree or right angle. Therefore, we can use right triangle trigonometry. The three main functions are:

  • sinθ= opposite/hypotenuse
  • cosθ= adjacent/hypotenuse
  • tanθ= opposite/adjacent

Examine the triangle. We will use angle S, measuring 54 degrees, for theta. Side QR, measuring x, is <u>opposite</u> angle S. Side QS, measuring 2.3, is the <u>hypotenuse</u> because it is opposite the right angle. Since we have the opposite and hypotenuse, we will use sine.

sin \theta = \frac {opposite}{hypotenuse}

  • θ= 54
  • opposite= x
  • hypotenuse = 2.3

sin (54)= \frac{ x}{2.3}

We are solving for x, so we must isolate the variable. It is being divided by 2.3 The inverse operation of division is multiplication, so we multiply both sides by 2.3

2.3* sin (54)= \frac{x}{2.3}*2.3

2.3* sin (54)=x

2.3*0.8090169944=x

1.860739087 =x

Round to the nearest tenth. The 6 in the hundredth place to the right tells us to round the 8 up to a 9.

1.9 \approx x

x is approximately <u>1.9</u>

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

  0.80

Step-by-step explanation:

The z-score is found from the formula ...

  Z = (X -μ)/σ

  Z = (77 -73)/5 = 4/5 = 0.80

Jennifer's Z-score was 0.80.
