Answer:
m=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we know that quadrilateral ABCD is similar to QRST, we know that the side lengths will be proportional to one another. As such, we should take a ratio to determine the side length of m.
m=4
How many males and how many females would there be if the total enrollment is 15000?
Ratio is
90 males 15000 - x
------------- = ---------------
125 fem x
Then 90x = 1875000 - 125x, or 215x = 1875000
x = approx 8720 females
and 15000-8720, or 6279 males
If every male finds a dance partner, that would leave (8720-6279) females, or 2440, without dance partners. ;(
Check: is the male:female ratio near 90:125?
Is 6279:8720 approx equal to 90:125?
Yes. 0.72 (approx) = 0.72 (approx).
Step-by-step explanation:
1) -5n+10n
= 5n
2) -x-9+2x-10
= 2x-x-9-10
= x-19
3) -5(x-10)-x
= -5x+50-x
= -6x+50
4) 9-5(1-7x)
= 9-5+35x
= 35x+4
5) y^2-x
= 3^2-2
= 9-2
= 7
Do the remain questions by yourself, you can do it!
Answer:
9:5 = 1428:x
ratios can also be written as fractions, so
9/5 = 1428/x
solve for x
9/5 × x = 1428
x = 1428 / (9/5)
x = 918
