ANSWER:

3,400

STEP BY STEP:

If 2/17 were socialists, then 15/17 were not socialists.

So...

3000 = 15/17x

(x represents the total number of teachers)

Multiply by 17 on both sides.

51,000 = 15x

Divide by 15 on both sides.

3,400 = x

Total number of teachers:  3,400.

Consider the diagram below. Which of the following represent the values of x,y, and z to the nearest hundredth?
astraxan [27]
See the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that
in the triangle BCD
y²+5.66²=z²-------> y²=z²-5.66²------> equation 1

in the triangle ABC
y²+5.66²=x²-------> y²=x²-5.66²------> equation 2

equals 1 and 2

z²-5.66²=x²-5.66²--------> z²=x²---------> z=x

if z=x then
angle A=45°
angle D=45°

in the triangle ABD
cos 45=z/(5.66*2)-------> z=11.32*cos 45-----> 11.32*√2/2----> 8
z=8
x=8

y²=z²-5.66²------> 8²-5.66²-----> y²=31.96------> y=5.65

the answer is
the value of x is 8
the value of z is 8
the value of y=5.65
