Let x be the amount of cement and y be the amount of sand. If <span>the ratio of cement to sand for mortar is 1:3, then

and y=3x.
</span>
So, if <span>Sandy puts in x=7 shovels of cement, then she puts

shovels of sand.
</span><span>

Answer: 21 shovels of sand.

Answer:
D: 2/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Usually when we talk about a point partitioning a segment, we are interested in the ratio of the first segment to the second:
BC : CD = 2 : 2 = 1 : 1
Since this is not an answer choice, we need to "reverse engineer" the answer list to see if we can find an answer that corresponds to a reasonable interpretation of the question.
__
None of the segments is 3 units long, so neither of answer choices A or B makes any sense.
While segment BD is 4 units long, there is no segment that is 1 unit long, so answer choice C makes no sense, either.
There are segments that are 2 units long and a segment that is 4 units long, so if we interpret the question to be "what is the ratio of BC to BD?" then answer choice D is appropriate.
Answer:
y=20x
Step-by-step explanation:
Since y represents the total cost y is the total. 20x because it is 20 dollars an hour and x after 20 because we do not know how many hours they will plan for lessons.
Answer: 48 in 1 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
32 divided by 40 = 0.8
0.8 times 60 = 48
hope this helped you out :))
Step-by-step explanation:
remember, tan = sin/cos.
of course, one solution is x = 0. sin(0) = 0, tan(0)=0).
for the general solution we look at x <> 0.
3×sin(x) = 2×tan(x) = 2×sin(x)/cos(x)
3 = 2/cos(x)
3×cos(x) = 2
cos(x) = 2/3
x = 48.1896851...°
