Answer:
1000 runners
Step-by-step explanation:
Take total number of runners to be -----------x
90% of x managed to complete the marathon= 90/100 × x =0.9x
30% of those who completed the marathon were men= 30% × 0.9x
=0.3×0.9x= 0.27x
=270 men completed the marathon; this means
0.27x=270--------------------------------find x by dividing both sides by 0.27
x= 270/0.27
x=1000 runners
Answer:
It is not equivalent.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to expand the brackets :
(x-4)(x+3)
= x(x) + x(3) - 4(x) - 4(3)
= x² + 3x - 4x - 12
= x² - x - 12
Therefore, x² - x - 12 / (x-4)(x+3) is not equivalent to x² - 4x - 12.
Answer:
The equation of the line would be y = 4/9x
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the equation, we first need to find the slope. We can do this by using the slope equation with the points.
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (9 - 0)/(4 - 0)
m = 9/4
Now that we have this, we can use point-slope form along with one of the points to get the equation.
y - y1 = m(x -x1)
y - 0 = 4/9(x - 0)
y = 4/9x
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The equation is 1 1/2 ÷ x = 2/3
2) You can multiply 2/3 with 1 1/2 to get your answer
3) 2/3 × 1 1/2 = 1

Answer:
16.5 ft by 25.5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the width of the garden in feet. Then w+9 is the garden's length, and w(w+9) represents its area.
The surrounding walkway adds 8 feet to each dimension, so the total area of the garden with the walkway is ...
(w+8)(w+9+8) = w^2 +25w +136
If we subtract the area of the garden itself, then the remaining area is that of the walkway:
(w^2 +25w +136) - (w(w+9)) = 400
16w + 136 = 400 . . .simplify
16w = 264 . . . . . . . . subtract 136
264/16 = w = 16.5 . . . . . width of the garden in feet
w+9 = 25.5 . . . . . . . . . . .length of the garden in feet
