Simply set up a proportion. 1/3 = x/48. Cross multiply afterwards. 48 = 3x. Solve the equation. x = 16. By using proportions which is another form of a ratio you can easily find out that there are 16 adults at the school. Hope this helps :))

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = x - 8 \\ \\ g(x) = |x + 8|$

To find (f ∘ g)(x) , substitute g(x) into f(x). That is for every x in f (x) replace it with g (x)

That's

Segment JI is a midsegment (given). So that means point J is a midpoint of segment HF. The midpoint cuts HF into two equal pieces. Those two pieces are HJ and JF. Therefore, HJ = JF

Using substitution, we can plug in the given expressions that the diagram shows. Then we can solve for x
HJ = JF
2x-3 = x+2
2x-3+3 = x+2+3
2x = x+5
2x-x = x+5-x
x = 5

Now that we know x = 5, use this to find the length of HG
HG = 11*x + 5
HG = 11*5 + 5
HG = 55 + 5
HG = 60

So HG is 60 inches long, which is the final answer

Note: 60 inches = 5 ft
