This is the concept of algebra,
The fraction of children was: 3/8
fraction of adults was 1-3/8=5/8
fraction of men 3/4*5/8=15/32
fraction of women=5/8-15/32=5/32
Given that there was 140 more children than men, the fraction representing this will be:
(3/8-5/32)
=7/32
thus the total number of people will be:
1/(7/32)*140
=32/7*140
=640
the total number of people was 640

A piece of pipe is 303/4 inches long. If five pieces, each 41/3 inches long, are cut from the pipe, how many inches of pipe rema
galina1969 [7]
So, what is the total lenght of the pieces that wer cut off?

we multiply the lenght by the number:

4 \frac{1}{3}*5=20+\frac{5}{3}=21\frac{2}{3}

and we subtract this from the original pipe, that is

30\frac{3}{4}-21\frac{2}{3}

we need to bring the two fractions to the same denominator (by multiplying the fraction art in the first by 3 and 4 the second):

30\frac{9}{12}-21\frac{8}{12}=9 \frac{1}{12}

so the correct answer is D!

What is the missing value of 5x-2y=30 (8,)
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

In this equation, we can start by understanding that "x" has a value of 8, as given in the ordered pair. When multiplied by 5, this leads to "40 - 2y = 30". Next, we can subtract 40 from both sides of the equation. This leads us to a value of "-2y = -10". The next step would be to divide both sides by -2 as a way of isolating "y", which leads us to a final value of "y = 5". The final ordered pair would be (8,5).

Mazyrski [523]
Since the truck is 8 feet long then the longest log able to fit in the truck should be 8 feet as well. However talking reality, we might want to shorten it to make it fit better. Hope this helps!
