This ratio means that there are two men for every three women. So, the ratio of women to men is 3:2. 

The total amount of students includes both men and women, so you would use 5. The ratio of women to total student is 3:5.

To find the percent, you divide the first number by the second number and multiply by 100. Our first number is the men, which is 2, and the total students are the second number, or 5.
2/5 = .4 * 100 = 40%

A ratio is the same thing as a fraction, so you take the amount of women (3) and put that over the total student body (5). 3/5 is your fraction.

Good luck, and I hope I helped!

\\ \sf\longmapsto x+2x+90=180

\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x+90=180

\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x=180-90

\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x=90

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{90}{3}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=30

Now

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=2y(Opposite interior angles)

\\ \sf\longmapsto 2y=30

\\ \sf\longmapsto y=\dfrac{30}{2}

\\ \sf\longmapsto y=15

And

\\ \sf\longmapsto x+z=180

\\ \sf\longmapsto z+30=180

\\ \sf\longmapsto z=180-30

\\ \sf\longmapsto z=150

HELP! DUE AT 5 PM!! 10 BRAINLIST!<br><br> 3x -15x - 30 &gt; 54
ryzh [129]

Answer:x<-7

Step-by-step explanation:

3x -15x - 30 > 54

-12x-30>54

-12x<54+30    

I moved 30 from left side to right which becomes positive and > becomes <

-12x<84

-12x/-12<84/-12           I used my calculator to do this

x<-7
