Salutations!

<span>The ratio of boys to girls in a school is 5:4. if there are 180 students, how many girls are there?

Let the number of girls and boys be 'x'.

</span>5x + 4x = 180
<span>
Add 5 and 4

</span>9x = 180
<span>
</span>x = 20
<span>
Now, multiply the ratios by 20.

Boys = 20 </span>× 5 = 100

Girls = 20 × 4 = 80.

There were 80 girls.

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!

baherus [9]

Answer:

Unit Rate of Change = 1.27%

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2000, t=1 and Total Music sales = 24.8%

In 2007, t=7 and Total Music sales = 32.4%

The Slope  m=\dfrac{32.4-24.8}{7-1} =\dfrac{7.6}{6}=1.27\%

The Unit Rate of Change is 1.27% and it means that the Total Music Sales Increased by approximately 1.27% every year.

Circle R has a radius of 6 inches. Points S, T, and U lie on circle R, clockwise in alphabetical order. If m∠TRS = 98°, what is
Alecsey [184]
<span>You are given circle R that has a radius of 6 inches. And then you are given points S, T, and U that lie on circle R, clockwise in alphabetical order. Also you are given m∠TRS = 98°and you are asked to find the m∠TUS. To solve this, you have to draw the circle first.

Draw a circle with R being a point at the center of it. Then place the points S, T and U around the circle. So that would mean any point, S, T and U that connects on R would have a value of 6 inches. Also, these are your radius.

You also know that m</span>∠TRS = 98°. You know that the circle, if you will base your angle from the center or its interior angle is just equal to 360°. To get the m∠TUS, subtract 360 to 98.

360° - 98° = 262°
therefore, m∠TUS is 262°

What is the amount, base, and percent in the expression.
Illusion [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is :

Amount: 2

Base: 100

Percent: 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we get the answer by using whatever we know. The first step is that 2 is the percent because it is having the percent sign . In addition we know that 100 is the base. And the one which is left is 2 so it's the amount.
