Answer:  The required value of x is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to solve the following equation for the value of x :

3:12=x:16~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

We know that

a:b=\dfrac{a}{b}.

So, from equation (i), we get

3:12=x:16\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{12}=\dfrac{x}{16}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{x}{16}\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{16}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow x=4.

Thus, the required value of x is 4.

You have
  3/12 = x/16
Multiply by 16
  16*(3/12) = x = 4

x = 4

Answer:

the theater needs to sell at least 100 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

wants to make at least $1000 and they already have $50, so you take the $9.50 per ticket and add that to the $50.

$1000=$9.50t+$50

1000/50=9.5t

950=9.5t

950/9.5=t

t=100

Rob cut a 15-foot wire into 8 equal pieces. about how long is each piece
Archy [21]
For this answer it is really going to depend on what you are rounding to. You need to start by dividing 15 by 8. This gives you 1.875 feet. If you are wanting your answer to the nearest hundreth of a foot your answer would be 1.88 feet.
If you are wanting your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot your answer would be 1.9 feet. And if you are wanting your answer to the nearest food your answer would be 2 feet.

adding up your angles (781) and subtract it from 900 =
