Hey. Let me help you on this one.

Let's break this problem down so it's easier for us to comprehend it.

There are 850 students in the school, and the amount of female students equals to the amount of male students + sixty additional females.

Amount of students in school = 850 students

Male students = X

Female students = X+60

Let's form an equation so we can work with what we have.

X+(X+60)=850

Subtract 60 from both sides.

X+X=790

Simplify

2X=790

Divide both sides by 2.

X=395

Answer: There are 395 male students, and 455 female students.

How can you change the dimensions of the rectangle so that the ratio of the length to the width stays the same, but the perimete
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

L = 62.5cm; B = 30cm

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2 (L+W): L=25cm; W=12cm

=2 (25+12)

=50+24

P = 74cm

For a congruent rectangle with P = 185cm

A: 74 = 2 (25 + 12)

B: 185 = 2( ? + ?)

Since A/B are congruent;

185/75 = 2.5

B = 2 (2.5* (25 + 12)

= 2 ( 62.5 + 30)

= 125 + 60

= 185

Hence, B: L = 62.5cm; B = 30cm

185cm = 2 (62.5 + 30)

When three pipes fill a pool, they can finish in 12 hours. Two of the pipes can finish in 18 hours if they are working together.
ladessa [460]
3 pipes take 12 hours
⇒ In 1 hour, the 3 pipes can fill 1/12 of the pool

2 of the pipes take 18 hours
⇒ in 1 hour, the 2 pipes can fill 1/18 of the pool

In 1 hour, the third pipe alone can fill :

\dfrac{1}{12} - \dfrac{1}{18} = \dfrac{3}{36} - \dfrac{2}{36} = \dfrac{1}{36} \text { of the pool}

Time needed :

1 \div \dfrac{1}{36} = 1 \times 36 = 36 \text { hours}

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: It will take 36 hours for the third pipe to fill the pool.
