So, the ration is 17:3, you know that. Therefore, the change from # of students to the 17 is the same change as # teachers to 3. Knowing this, you also know that the total # of people ihas the same change as the total ratio. So 17+3 = 20. 740/20 = 37. So the change is 37. 3x37= 111   17x37=629 
You can check to make sure this answer is correct by adding the two final numbers. 111+629 = 740.  (Some find it easier to see lined up really pretty)
17 -- 3   total 20
 x -- y   total 740 
 Or, if you are visual, look at the picture I drew:

Jane says that she can use addition to show that the graphs of 2x - 3y = 1 and 2x + 3y = 2 are intersecting lines. In two or mor
iogann1982 [59]
For this case we have the following equations:
 2x - 3y = 1
 2x + 3y = 2
 When adding both equations we observe that:
 Sentence 1: we have an equation of a variable, which in this case will be x. We can clear the value of x.
 Sentence 2: Knowing the value of x, we can substitute in any equation and find the value of y.
 Sentence 3: The value of x and y represents the point of intersection of both lines (x, y).

Mr.Johnson weighs 135 pounds. Her husband weighs 80 kilogram. How many fewer pounds does Ms.Johnson weigh than her husband?
sweet-ann [11.9K]
First you convert kilograms to pounds,
1 kilogram = 2.205 pounds
next you times the number of pounds per kilogram by the number of kilograms given that need to be turned into pounds.
80 times 2.205 = 176.4
next you subtract to get the answer
176.4 - 135= 41.4
so Ms. Johnson weighs 41.4 pounds less than herr husband
