In order to put two quantities as a relationship, just put a colon or a fraction bar in between them, in the order that the problem asks you.

In this problem, it's asking for the # of students planning to go to an instate college to the # of students planning to go to an out of state college.
So, 120 : 70

Even though it doesn't tell you to simplify, it will never hurt you, so always do it.
Both 120 and 70 can be divided by 10, so the simplified answer would be 12:7

Hope this helps!

A basketball player made 40% of the shots she attempted. She made 32 baskets how many shots did she attempt
bogdanovich [222]
Since 40% does not nicely go into 100% you split the 32 baskets she made. (32/2)
This means 16 baskets is 20%. Now that 20% goes nicely into 100% you multiply 16 by 5 and 20 by 5 to get 80.
The basketball player made 80 shot attempts.

Ellen read a book a day for 10 weeks. How many books did<br> she read in all?
a_sh-v [17]

1 week = 7 days

10 weeks = 10×7 days

= 70 days

if Ellen reads 1 book in a day

Therefore,

1 day = 1 book

70 days = 70×1

= 70 books.

Thus Ellen reads 70 books in 10 weeks.

Hope helps

The height of a triangle is 4 inches. Greater than twice it's base. The area of the triangle is no more than 168 in.². Which any
mestny [16]

Step-by-step explanation:

this problem seeks to test our knowledge on word problems and algebra

<u>Solution</u>

let the base be x, and

the height h = 2x+4

We know that area of a triangle is given as

A= \frac{1}{2} b*h

substituting our given values we have

168= \frac{1}{2} x*(2x+4)\\\\168= \frac{2x^2+4x}{2} \\\\168= x^2+2x\\\\

re-arranging we have

x^2+2x-168=0\\\\

we can now find two factors that will add up to give 2 and multiply to give -168

they are 14 and -12

x^2-14x+12x-168=0\\\\x(x-14)+12(x- 14)=0\\\\x+12=0\\\\x=-12\\\\x-14=0\\\\x=14

The possible base of the triangle is 14 in

and the height is

h= 2x+4\\\\h=2(14)+4\\\\h= 28+4\\\\\h= 32 in
