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.

Water level in a well was 20m below ground level. During rainy season, rainwater collected in different water tanks was drained
IgorC [24]

Answer:

17 m

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the figure,  A_0-B_0 is the ground level, A_1-B_1 is the old level of water which was at 20 m below ground level, A_2-B_2 is the new level of water which is 5m above of old level. The height of wall of the well, 1.20 m, and the the pelly at 80 cm =0.80 m, has been shown too.

The minimum length of the rope is equal to the distance between the pully and the new water level, indicated by the length L_0 in the figure.

So, L_0= 20-5+1.20+0.80= 17m

Hence, Raghu must use a rope having the minimum length 17 m to draw water from the well.

A ship leaves port at 1:00 P.M. and travels S35°E at the rate of 27 mi/hr. Another ship leaves the same port at 1:30 P.M. and tr
Len [333]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You must apply the Law of Cosines, as you can see in the figure attached. Then:

- The first ship travels at 27 mi/hr in for two hours. Therefore, the side a is:

a=(27 mi/hr)(2 hr)=54mi

- The second ship travels at 18 mi/hr for 1.5 hours. Therefore, the side b is:

b=(18mi/hr)(1.5hr)=27mi

- Now, you can calculate c:

c=\sqrt{54^{2}+27^{2}-2(54)(27)Cos(55)}=44 mi

The answer is: 44 miles
