<u>1. </u>Subtract 24 from both sides

-3x = -27 - 24

Simplify -27 - 24 to -51

-3x = -51

Divide both sides by -3

x = -51/-3

Two negatives make a positive

x = 51/3

Simplify 51/3 to 17

<u>x = 17</u>

<u>2.</u> Regroup terms

n/5 - 17 = 33

Add 17 to both sides

n/5 = 33 + 17

Simplify 33 + 17 to 50

n/5 = 50

Multiply both sides by 5

n = 50 * 5

Simplify 50 * 5 to 250

<u>n = 250</u>

in a first aid kit the ratio of large bandages to small bandages is 5 to 2. Based on this ratio, how many large bandages are in
Radda [10]
The best way to answer this question is to set up the first sentence as a ratio of large bandages to total bandages. You would write 5 large bandages to 7 total bandages to 7 total bandages.  Then you would make this equivalent to x number of large bandages to 60 total.  It would look like this 5:7 = x:60.  You could use cross products to multiply 60 by 5 to get 300.  7 times x also should equal 300.  Unfortunately, this example will not leave us with a whole number of bandages, but 300/7 is a repeating decimal or a mixed number (42 6/7 large bandages).

solong [7]

Answer:

64 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the height of the kite we use sin trigonometric ratio.

Let the height of the kite from the ground be x feet.

\therefore \: \sin 40 \degree =  \frac{x}{100}  \\  \\  \therefore \: 0.6427876097=  \frac{x}{100}  \\  \\ \therefore \: 0.6427876097 \times 100= x \\  \\  \therefore \:x = 64.29  \\  \\  \therefore \:x = 64 \: feet
