X=numerator
y=denominator
the sum of numerator and denominator=x+y
we suggest this system of equations:
y=x-3
(x+5) / (y+5)=5/6
we solve this system of equation by substitution method.
(x+5) / (x-3+5)=5/6
(x+5) / (x+2)=5/6
6(x+5)=5(x+2)
6x+30=5x+10
6x-5x=10-30
x=-20
y=x-3=-20-3=-23
Teh sum of the numerator an denominator=-20+(-23)=-43
Answer: -43
Answer:
30cm3
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume=Base area *height
Base area is a triangle=1/2 *base*height
1/2*3*4=6cm2
Height=5cm
Volume=6*5=30cm3
The original ratio is 6 boys= 5 girls, so if another 6 boys joined, another 5 girls would need to join, too.
The first and last one are true!

Answer is 63,000 pounds</h3>
The ratio 3:4 means for every 3 pounds made in away team tickets versus home team tickets. Multiply both sides by 9000 to have that 4 turn into 36000. The ratio 3:4 will then turn into 27000:36000
With this new ratio, we see that the away team pulls in 27000 and the home team pulls in 36000. Add the two amounts to get the final answer
27000+36000 = 63000
------------
We could alternatively add 3 and 4 (from the ratio 3:4) to get 3+4 = 7. Then multiply by that same scale factor 9000 getting 9000*7 = 63000.
