Answer:
The answer to your questions is: 25 new teachers
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
# of students = 2000
ratio = 3:80 teachers to students
New teachers = ?
Process
I suggest to use rule of three to solve this problem
3 teachers ---------------- 80 students
x ---------------- 2000 students
x = (2000 x 3) / 80 = 75 teachers
Number of initial teachers = 75
The ratio change to 1:20
1 teacher ------------------- 20 students
x ------------------- 2000 students
x = (2000 x 1) / 20
x = 100 teachers
Number of new teachers = 100 - 75 = 25
Suppose Alex has 3x stamps, Freddy has 5x stamps. After Freddy gives Alex 10 stamps, Alex has 3x+10 while Freddy has 5x-10
the new ratio is 7 to 9, so we have the equation: (3x+10)/(5x-10)=7/9
9(3x+10)=7(5x-10)
27x+90=35x-70
160=8x
x=20
So Alex has 3*20=60 stamps while Freddy has 5*20=100. Together they have 160

3 i think this would be the answer
You can set up two equations from the information given. I will set them up for you:
32 = 4x + 2y
36 = 5x + 2y
Let's solve the first equation to come up with a value for y.
32 = 4x + 2y
32 - 4x = 2y
16 - 2x = y
Now we plug y into the other equation.
36 = 5x + 2(16-2x)
36 = 5x + 32 - 4x
4 = x
Now we have our real x value and we can plug it into the first equation.
32 = 4(4) + 2y
32 = 16 + 2y
16 = 2y
8 = y
Since x = 4 and y = 8, you get the final coordinates of (4,8).
Your answer is the second statement provided above.
