The ratio of wooden bats to metal bats in

Mathematics
1 answer:

<h3>Answer: 10 metal bats</h3>

"Ratio of wooden bats to metal bats is 2 to 1" basically means "there are twice as many wooden bats (compared to metal ones)". So if we had 3 metal bats, then we'd have 2*3 = 6 wooden bats. If we had 7 metal bats, then we have 14 wooden ones (because 2*7 = 14). And so on. The basic rule is to multiply the amount of metal bats by 2 to get the amount of wooden ones.

We can go in reverse to divide the amount of wooden bats to get the amount of metal ones. So 20/2 = 10 is the amount of metal bats.

------------------

A more formal approach is to use the proportion below to solve for x

20/x = 2/1

20*1 = x*2

20 = 2x

2x = 20

2x/2 = 20/2

x = 10

and we get the same answer.

5 &lt; 4x = 2&gt; 3x PLEASE HELP
Galina-37 [17]
Looks fishy to me, the way this problem combines <, = and > symbols.

But anyway.  Subtract 3x from both sides.  You'll get

5 < x = 2 > 0      2 > 0 is true, but that's a different type of math problem (true or false).    If you decide to substitute '1' for 2 > 0, then the "1" says "TRUE."

Then 5 < x = true, so you must find x values that are larger than 5.

That would be (5, infinity)

Please go back and ensure that you have copied down the original problem exactly as it appears.
