X - students
y - faculty members

The student to faculty ratio is 17:3.
x:y=17:3
\frac{x}{y}=\frac{17}{3} \\
x=\frac{17}{3}y

The number of students and faculty is 740.
x+y=740 \\
x=\frac{17}{3}y \\
\Downarrow \\
\frac{17}{3}y+y=740 \ \ \ |\times 3 \\
17y+3y=2220 \\
20y=2220 \\
y=111 \\ \\ 
x=\frac{17}{3}y=\frac{17}{3} \times 111=\frac{1887}{3}=629


There are 629 students and 111 faculty members at the college.

So students:faculty=17:3
total =740
we can assume that the units are the same so 17+3=20 so
740=20 units
74=2 units
37=1 unit

faculty=3 units
37 times 3=111
there are 111 faculty members

What is the area of △ABC?
kirza4 [7]
Answer:
Area = 492.4 m²

Explanation:
The area of the triangle can be calculated using the side-angle-side method as follows:
Area = 0.5 * first side * second side * sin(angle included between these two sides)

This rule is illustrated in the attached image.

Now, we have:
AB = 40 m
BC = 25 m
angle B which is the angle included between AB and BC = 80 degrees

The given angle is included between the two given sides, therefore, we can apply the above rule to get the area.
Area of triangle = 0.5*40*25*sin(80)
Area of triangle = 492.4 m²

Hope this helps :)

Graph the inequality 4x-3y is greater than or equal to-9
Komok [63]
Get y by itself:
4x-3y>equal to -9
-4x. -4x
-3y>equal to -4x-9
Divide by -3

y>equal to 4/3x+3

To graph, go to y=3 and plot (0,3). Then do slope. Up 4 and 3 right. Go down 4 and 3 left to get the other side of the inequality. This line will be solid. You shade upwards by the way.
