Answer:
Susan has more books than Michael.
Step-by-step explanation:
If Susan has 50% more books and Michael has 40 books, that means Susan has 1.5 times 40 = 60
40 + 8 = 48
60 is more than 48, so Susan has more books than Michael
Set up the equation by writing the number of students in the ratio as a fraction:
3/4= (245-x)/x Cross multiply:
3x= 4(245-x) Multiply on right:
3x= 980-4x Add 4x on both sides:
7x= 980 Divide both sides by 7:
x= 140 this is how many girls there are. And:
245-140= 105= boys
Answer:
3 (28 n - 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
-9 (1 - 10 n) - 2 (3 n + 9)
-9 (1 - 10 n) = 90 n - 9:
90 n - 9 - 2 (3 n + 9)
-2 (3 n + 9) = -6 n - 18:
90 n + -6 n - 18 - 9
Grouping like terms, 90 n - 6 n - 18 - 9 = (90 n - 6 n) + (-9 - 18):
(90 n - 6 n) + (-9 - 18)
90 n - 6 n = 84 n:
84 n + (-9 - 18)
-9 - 18 = -27:
84 n + -27
Factor 3 out of 84 n - 27:
Answer: 3 (28 n - 9)
