Set up a proportion that answers men : workers

3:4 is men : women, not it
3:7 is men : workers this is the one we need.

So now 3:7 = 216/x in a proportion..
Cross multiply
3(x) = 7(216)
3x = 1512
X = 504

Factor completely 3x2 − x − 4.
vova2212 [387]
If you would like to factor completely 3 * x^2 - x - 4, you can do this using the following steps:

<span>3 * x^2 - x - 4 = (3 * x - 4) * (x + 1) = (3x - 4) * (x + 1)
</span>
The correct result would be (3x - 4) * (x + 1<span>).</span>

Rectangle A measures 10 inches by 8 inches. Rectangle B is an enlarged copy of Rectangle A. Select all of the measurement pairs
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rectangle A:

Length: 10\ in

Width: 8\ in

Required

Determine the possible dimensions of Rectangle B

<em>The question has missing options; however, the question can still be solved.</em>

<em></em>

Rectangle B being an enlarged copy of A implies that the dimension of A A is enlarged in equal proportion to form B

Take for instance, the measurements of Rectangle B are

Length: 15 in

Width: 12 in

Divide the corresponding lengths of B by A to get the enlargement ratio

Ratio = \frac{B}{A}

For length:

Ratio = \frac{15}{10}

Ratio = 1.5

For width

Ratio = \frac{12}{8}

Ratio = 1.5

Notice that both ratios are the same.

For this measurement of B, we can conclude that B is an enlargement of A

Assume another measurements for B

Length: 20\ in

Width: 10\ in

Calculate Ratios

Ratio = \frac{B}{A}

For length:

Ratio = \frac{20}{10}

Ratio = 2

For width

Ratio = \frac{10}{8}

Ratio = 1.25

Notice that, both ratios are not equal.

For this measurement of B, we can conclude that B is not an enlargement of A

<em>Conclusively, all you have to do is: determine the ratios of the dimensions of B to A, if the result are equal then B is an enlarged copy of A; if otherwise, then B is not an enlarged copy</em>

A school baseball team earned $3416.90 from selling 5716 tickets to their game. If grandstand tickets sold for 65 cents each and
Nataly [62]
Let g and b represent the numbers of grandstand and bleacher tickets sold.
.. g + b = 5716 . . . . . . . . . total number of tickets sold
.. 65g +40b = 341690 . . value of tickets sold

Using the first equation
.. g = 5716 -b
Sustituting into the second equation
.. 65(5716 -b) +40b = 341690
.. -25b + 371540 = 341690 . . . . . collect terms
.. -25b = -29850 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 371540
.. b = 1194 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by -25

1194 bleacher tickets were sold.

Rudik [331]

Answer:

  x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The parts of the triangles are proportional, so you can write ...

  2x/80 = 27/60

Multiply by 120:

  3x = 54

Divide by 3:

  x = 18
