The ration is 170 adults:150 children, or 170/150We can factor out a 10 from both numbers, which leaves us with
17 adults/15 children.17 and 15 have no other factors, so that's the smallest ratio we can have.

Answer: 170:150 ; 17/15

Step-by-step explanation:

At the ticket booth at a school play 170 adult tickets and 150 student tickets were sold. To find the ratio of adults to students goes thus:

Number of adults tickets sold= 170

Number of students ticket sold= 150

Ratio of adult to student= 170:150

Writing the answer as a fraction in simplest form will be:

Number of adults tickets sold= 170

Number of students ticket sold= 150

Ratio of adult to student= 170:150

Fraction= 170/150

We divide the numerator and denominator by 10

170÷10 / 160÷10

= 17/15

The length of a rectangle in centimeters is two more than thrice its width. a) Write an expression, in the simplest form, for th
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Perimeter of the rectangle = 8 x +4

Length of the rectangle = 12 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle as 'x' units.

So, length of the rectangle is 2 more than 3 x.

We can set up expression for length as 3 x+2.

Now, perimeter is sum of all side lengths of the rectangle.

So, perimeter = x+x+3 x+2 +3 x+2

Combine like terms,

Perimeter = 8 x+4

Now, it is given perimeter is 36cm

So,

8 x+4=36

Subtract both sides 4

8 x=32

Divide both sides by 8

x=4

So, width of the rectangle =4

Length =3(4) +2=14

Paul [167]

Answer:

113.7-2.154\frac{9.1}{\sqrt{29}}=110.06    

113.7+2.154\frac{9.1}{\sqrt{29}}=117.34    

And the 96% confidence is given by (110.06; 117.34)

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

\bar X=113.7 represent the sample mean

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s=9.1 represent the sample standard deviation

n=29 represent the sample size  

Confidence interval

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=29-1=28

The Confidence is 0.96 or 96%, the significance is \alpha=0.04 and \alpha/2 =0.02, and the critical value would be t_{\alpha/2}=2.154

Replacing the info we got:

113.7-2.154\frac{9.1}{\sqrt{29}}=110.06    

113.7+2.154\frac{9.1}{\sqrt{29}}=117.34    

And the 96% confidence is given by (110.06; 117.34)

I do not know what to put and this was due yesterday
atroni [7]

Answer:

Your answer will be x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Five plus 6 times a number is equal to 21 minus 2 times the number

Your equation is this:

5+6x=21-2x

Subtract 6x from both sides

5+6x-6x=21-2x-6x

5=21-8x

subtract 21 on both sides

5-21=21-21-8x

-16=-8x    Divide -8 on both sides

2=x

Hope this helps :)
