We know that

[<span>percent of the races did Glenn crash]={[races crashed]/[total races]}*100
</span>[percent of the races did Glenn crash]={[9]/[30]}*100
[percent of the races did Glenn crash]=[0.30]*100=30%

If a university wants to maintain a 14:1 ratio between students and teachers, how many teachers would be needed to accommodate 8
zheka24 [161]
<span>So we want to know the number of teachers the university should have if the ratio of students to teachers is 14:1 and the number of students is 896. If x is the number of teachers: 14/1=896/x. Now we solve for x: Lets multiply both sides with x: x*(14/1)=896 and divide both sides by 14 and we get: x=896/14 and x=64. So the university should have 64 teachers.</span>

What is the value of x? Enter your answer in the box. x = cm A bow tie shape polygon made of two bow ties that share a vertex. T
avanturin [10]

Answer:

side x is 5 cm long

Step-by-step explanation:

Use proportions, given that the two triangles are similar because they contain three equal angles:

One angle due to connected by the vertex (oppose by the vertex), another angle as marked with the tick, and the third one has to be the same due to the fact that the addition of the three internal angles of a triangle must equal 180 degrees.

Then our proportion becomes:

\frac{4}{32} =\frac{x}{40}

And then we solve for x by multiplying both sides by 40 (to eliminate the denominator on the right):

\frac{4}{32} =\frac{x}{40} \\\frac{4*40}{32} =x\\ x=5\,\,cm

Imogen sees a design for a garden in a magazine. She changes the scale because she wants a smaller garden. The figure below show
faust18 [17]

Answer:

Length A of the magazine garden is 28 feet is true.

Length B of the Magazine garden is 17.5 feet is true.

Length C of the Magazine garden is 35 feet is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer the attached figure.

Given:-

Magazine Scale is 1 inch = 3.5 feet.

Imogen's scale is 2 inches = 6 feet,

Therefore Imogen's scale is 1 inch = 3 feet.

In Triangle ABC,

side a = 8 inches, side b= 5 inches, side c= 10 inches.

To find:- The correct 3 options(actual size of sides of triangle  ABC).

Solution:-

In triangle ABC,

Let,

AB=side a =8 inches

BC=side b =5 inches

AC=side c= 10 inches

Now, as per the given scale's of Magazine and Imogen's we can find the actual sizes.

Length A as per Magazine scale (1 inch = 3.5 feet) is,

\therefore Length\ A=8\times 3.5   -------------(as per scale)

\therefore Length A=28\ feet

and Length A as per Imogen's scale(1 inch =3 feet) is,

AB = side a

\therefore Length\ A=8\times 3  -------------(as per scale)

\therefore Length A=24\ feet

Therefore Length A of the magazine garden is 28 feet is true.

Now, Length B as per Magazine scale (1 inch = 3.5 feet) is,

BC = side b

\therefore Length\ B=5\times 3.5

\therefore Length B=17.5\ feet

Length B as per Imogen's scale (1 inch = 3 feet) is,

BC = side b

\therefore Length\ B=5\times 3

\therefore Length B=15\ feet

Therefore Length B of the Magazine garden is 17.5 feet is true.

Now, Length C as per Magazine scale (1 inch = 3.5 feet) is,

AC = side c

\therefore Length\ C=10\times 3.5

\therefore Length C=35\ feet

Length B as per Imogen's scale (1 inch = 3 feet) is,

AC = side c

\therefore Length\ C=10\times 3

\therefore Length B=30\ feet

Therefore Length C of the Magazine garden is 35 feet is true.
