What does x equal? In order to find the relationship between x and y we need to know both values at a given instance. For example, if x = 10 while y = 20/3, then we know that you = 20x/30 or 2x/3.
Eq. 1 .10x + .25y = 9.45
Eq. 2 x + y = 60 rewrite as x = 60 - y and substitute into equation 1.
.10(60 - y) + .25y = 9.45
6 - .1y + .25y = 9.45
6 + .15y = 9.45
.15y = 3.45
y = 23
60 - 23 = 37
23 quarters
37 dimes
23* .25 = 5.75
37 * .1 = 3.70
5.75 + 3.70 =9.45
The triangles are not similar because the smallest sides are 6/10 = 3/5, the medium sides are 8/24 = 1/3, and the longest sides are 10/26 = 5/13 and similar triangles must have the same ratio for all three sides.
Answer:
140 students are in the school
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the Pie Chart, 70 students are 50%. So then, you multiply 50% of the survey to get 100% (the entirety surveyed). So 70 x 2 = 140
So there were 140 students in the school.
