The ratio of pop songs to rock songs you download is 5:4, and 40 are pop songs. You want to find out how many rock songs there are.
First, add the ratios together: 5+4=9. This means that 9 will be your denominator, so 5/9 songs are pop and 4/9 songs are rock.
Now you know that pop songs account for 5/9 of the songs, this means that 40 is 5/9 of the total songs.
To find out how much 4/9 is, you need to divide 40 by 5 to get 1/9 and times that number by 4 to get 4/9:
40÷5=8×4=32 songs are rock songs
You are converting the numbers to a word problem.
1. 5+x = the number five plus x
2. 5-x= the number 5 minus x
3. 5x= five times x
4. 5/x= five divided by x
5. three-fourths of x plus 2
6. two minus three-fourths of x
7. 3 times x plus 10
8. ten times x plus three
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
this is a simultaneous equation question
f(1)=8 so a(1) + b = 8
f(4)=17 so a(4) + b = 17
can you figure this out from here ???
if you can't below is how to solve it

a + b = 8
4a+b=17
multiply the top equation by 4 and then subtract the bottom one from the top
4a+4b = 32
-(4a +b = 17)
3b = 15
b=5
now plug 5 into the first equation
a + 5 = 8
a=3
there you go :)
Answer:
33
Step-by-step explanation:
So I just put them in order....18,19,23,25,28,30,31,33,33,35,36
and you can see that 33 pops up twice when the others only pop up once..so the answer is 33
