Peter scored 30 goals at soccer practice. His ratio of goals to misses was 6:7. How many times did he miss?

2 answers:

6 0

Goals=30
the ratio is 6 units to 7 units
goals=6 units
goals=30
30=6 uints
divide by 6
5=1 unit
so miss=7 units
5 per unit times 7 units=35
answer is 35 miss

He missed 26 times. First you do 6 divided by 7 times 100 to get 86(rounded). Then you do 30 divided by 100 to get .3 times the 86 to get 26.

What is -2n - 24 = -8(2n-4) , and how do I do it? Thanks in advance.

myrzilka [38]

-2n-24=-8(2n-4)
Multiply both sides by -1
2n+24=8(2n-4)
Distribute the right side
2n+24=16n-32
Subtract 2n from both sides
24=14n-32
Add 32 to both sides
56=14n
Divide 14 from both sides
n=4

For what value of x is PQ || BC?<br> A 5<br> B. 6<br> C. 7<br> D. 8

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

C. 7

Step-by-step explanation:

$In\: \triangle ABC\\\overline{PQ} \parallel \overline {BC}.. (given) \\$

Therefore, by Basic Proportionality theorem:

$\frac{AP}{PB} = \frac{AQ}{QC} \\\\\therefore \frac{x}{x+7} = \frac{x-3}{x+1} \\\\ \therefore \: \frac{x - x - 7}{x + 7} = \frac{x - 3 - x - 1}{x + 1} \\ (by \: dividendo) \\ \\ \frac{ - 7}{x + 7} = \frac{ - 4}{x + 1} \\ \\ \frac{7}{x + 7} = \frac{4}{x + 1} \\ \\ 7x + 7 = 4x + 28 \\ \\ 7x - 4x = 28 - 7 \\ \\ 3x = 21 \\ \\ x = \frac{21}{3} \\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ x = 7}}$
