Because the ratio of women to children is 10:1, double the ratio of men to women so the women are both 10:
Men to women becomes 8:10
Now total the 3 ratios: 8 for men, 10, for women and 9 for children:
8 + 10 + 9 = 27
Divide total people by that number:
270/27 = 10
Multiply 10 by each ratio:
Men = 8 * 10 = 80
Women = 10 * 10 = 100
Children = 9 *10 = 90
There is 80 men.
Answer:
<u>75 ft²</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface Area :
- Area (4 triangles) + Area (base)
- 4 x 1/2 x 5 x 5 + 5 x 5
- 50 + 25
- <u>75 ft²</u>
Answer:
1.15p + 285 = 5.84
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem has two equations. Total cost and Total pounds. The cost and the pounds
p = apple pounds
b = banana pounds
<u>Cost</u>
1.90p + .75b = 5.84
<u>Pounds</u>
p + b = 3.8
<u>Now we use the substitute method for system of equations to solve</u>
p + b = 3.8
b = -p + 3.8
<u>Now that we know what b equals, substitute is for b in the cost equation.</u>
1.90p + .75b = 5.84
1.90p + .75(-p+3.8) = 5.84
<u>distribute / multiply .75 by (-p+3.8)</u>
1.90p + -.75p + 2.85 = 5.84
<u>Combine the p values</u>
1.15p + 285 = 5.84
