3 men

4 women

7 total


3 men/ 7 total = 198 men/ x total

using cross products

3*x = 7 * 198

divide each side by 3

x = 7*198/3

x = 462

There are 462 workers


If you mean 3 men and 1 women for a total of 4 workers when you state a  ratio of men and women in a certain factory is 3 to 4.

3/4 =198/x

Using cross products

3x = 4* 198

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 4*198/3

x =264

264 workers


It all depends on how you define ratio of men and women in a certain factory is 3 to 4.   This is incorrect phrasing and I took it to be men to women.   You cannot have a ratio of men and women.

Answer:

41 and 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the integers be x and x + 1

=> x + x + 1 = 85

=> 2x + 1 = 85

=> 2x = 84

=> x = 84/2

=> x = 41

Y=2x+1
yan [13]

Answer:

(1) 2 (2) (-1/2,0) (3) (0,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line is the number times x. This equation is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. In this case, m is 2, so we have our slope. The y-intercept is easy, as we already know it to be (0,1). The x-intercept is the point where the line hits x when y=0. To solve for the x-intercept, we set y to 0 and solve. We have 0=2x+1. First, we subtract 1 from both sides and get -1=2x. Next, to get x by itself, divide both sides by 2. Now we have -1/2=x. Now we have our x coordinate for our x-intercept. Because of this, we get (-1/2,0) as our x-intercept.
