27 students is basically the sum of their ratios 4:5

We can define the proportion with an arbitary variable x ->


4x:5x


Which is the ratio of packed to bought lunch. Therefore, 4x + 5x = 9x. 9x =27
x=3

The students that bought their lunch were the 5x group, therefore 15 students bought lunch.

Answer:

5 cups of flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

I know the wording of the problem may be confusing at first, but if you look at it a little bit, it's just multiplication and division.

To start,

12 biscuits require 2 cups of flour,

meaning that 6 biscuits (half of the original) only require 1 cup.

<u>(12/2 = 6)</u>

Next,

We need to find how much flour is in 30 biscuits.

We know that 1 cup is in 6 biscuits, and if you were to find how much was in 30 biscuits, you would just need to divide 30 by 6.

<u>(30/6 = 5)</u>

5 cups of flour would be your answer.

To put it mathematically,

(12/2 = 6), (30/6 = 5)

10°<br> 55°<br> x х<br> Solve for y in the figure above.
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Y=145
Explanation:
A triangle’s angles add up to a total of 180 so you would subtract 55 from 180 and then subtract 90 because of the right angle, then you would end with x=35. Since x and y are supplementary they add to 180...so then you subtract 35 from 180 and then you get y=145.

Combine as indicated by the signs. 4/ y^2-9 + 5/y+3
natka813 [3]
\frac{4}{y^{2}-9 } + \frac{5}{y+3} = \frac{4}{(y-3)(y+3) } + \frac{5}{y+3}= \frac{4}{(y-3)(y+3) } + \frac{5(y-3)}{(y-3)(y+3)}=&#10;\\ \\=\frac{4}{(y-3)(y+3) } + \frac{5y-15}{(y-3)(y+3)}= \frac{5y-11}{(y-3)(y+3)}=\frac{5y-11}{y^{2}-9}&#10;
