The answer is 15 : 5

because In mathematics, a ratio is a relationship between two numbers indicating how many times the first number contains the second. For example, if a bowl of fruit contains eight oranges and six lemons, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is eight to six (that is, 8:6, which is equivalent to the ratio 4:3).
And you said girls : boys

That means 15 : 5 or 15 to 5

How do you factorize p2 + 2p - 3 =0
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Solution

p = {-3, 1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

p2 + 2p + -3 = 0

Reorder the terms:

-3 + 2p + p2 = 0

Solving

-3 + 2p + p2 = 0

Solving for variable 'p'.

Factor a trinomial.

(-3 + -1p)(1 + -1p) = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-3 + -1p)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

-3 + -1p = 0

Solving

-3 + -1p = 0

Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3' to each side of the equation.

-3 + 3 + -1p = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0

0 + -1p = 0 + 3

-1p = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3

-1p = 3

Divide each side by '-1'.

p = -3

Simplifying

p = -3

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(1 + -1p)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

1 + -1p = 0

Solving

1 + -1p = 0

Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.

1 + -1 + -1p = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0

0 + -1p = 0 + -1

-1p = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1

-1p = -1

Divide each side by '-1'.

p = 1

Simplifying

p = 1

Solution

p = {-3, 1}

dalvyx [7]

Given :

Median salary of engineer , E = $55,000 .

Median salary of computer engineer , C = $52,000 .

To Find :

The total cost for a business to employ two engineers and three programmers for 1 year .

Solution :

Now , cost of paying two engineers .

C_e=\$2\times 55000\\\\C_e=\$110000

Also , cost of paying three programmers .

C_p=3\times 52000\\\\C_p=\$156000

Therefore , total cost for 1 year is \$(110000+156000)=\$266000 .

Hence , this is the required solution .
