2 tench fish were added.
in total there are 70 after the 10 added. the probability of getting a carp is 1 half so divide 70 by 2 to see how many carp there are. 70/2 = 35. so right now there are 35 carp and 35 tench. Now, before the 10 were added, there was 60 fish and 27 were carp. So subtract 27 from 60 to know how many tech fish there was. 60 - 27 = 33. There was 33 tech fish and from 33 to 35 goes 2. So 2 tench fish were added.

zavuch27 [327]

Given:

Total number of students at Colfax Middle School = 270

Ratio of boys to girls is 5:4.

Total number of students at Winthrop Middle School = 180

Ratio of boys to girls is 4:5.

The two schools hold a dance and all students from both schools attend.

To find:

The fraction of the students at the dance are girls

Solution:

There are 270 students at Colfax Middle School, where the ratio of boys to girls is 5:4.

$5+4=9$

Number of boys $=270\times \dfrac{5}{9}=150$

Number of girls $=270\times \dfrac{4}{9}=120$

There are 180 students at Winthrop Middle School, where the ratio of boys to girls is 4:5.

$4+5=9$

Number of boys $=180\times \dfrac{4}{9}=80$

Number of girls $=180\times \dfrac{5}{9}=100$

Now,

Total number of students in both schools $= 270+180$

$= 450$

Total number of girls in both schools $= 120+100$

$= 220$

The fraction of the students at the dance are girls is

$\text{Required fraction}=\dfrac{\text{Total number of girls in both schools}}{\text{Total number of students in both schools}}$

$\text{Required fraction}=\dfrac{220}{450}$

$\text{Required fraction}=\dfrac{22}{45}$

Therefore, the required fraction is $\dfrac{22}{45}$ .

Let mZA = 40°. If zB is a complement of ZA, and ZC is a supplement of ZB, find these measures.

seraphim [82]

Angle b= 50

Angle c= 130

Complementary angles are two angles that add to equal 90

Supplementary angles are two angles that add to equal 180

To find the measurement of angle b, subtract 40 from 90 (50)

To find the measurement of angle c, subtract 50 from 180 (130)
