When the Slowpoke Marathon began, the ratio of runners to joggers was 2 to 19. A total of 4200 participants began the race (each

either a runner or a jogger, but not both), but 450 joggers dropped out of the race along the way. Out of the remaining participants, who are runners, 16 % of them dropped out of the race. If everyone else finished the race, then what was the simplified ratio of runners to joggers among those who finished the race?

Answer:

  168 : 1675

Step-by-step explanation:

At the beginning of the race, the number of ratio units was 2+19 = 21, so each stands for 4200/21 = 200 participants. Then there were ...

  • 2×200 = 400 runners
  • 19×200 = 3800 joggers

At the end of the race, there were 450 fewer joggers, so ...

  3800 -450 = 3350 . . . joggers

16% of the 400 runners is 64 runners, so with that many dropping out, the remaining number of runners was ...

  400 -64 = 336

So, at the end of the race the ratio of runners to joggers was ...

  336 : 3350 = 168 : 1675

Answer:

168 : 1675

Step-by-step explanation:

2/21 × 4200 = 400 runners

19/21 × 4200 = 3800 joggers

3800 - 450 = 3350 joggers

400 - 16%(400) = 336 runners

336 : 3350

168 : 1675

Step-by-step explanation:

so im learning this rn in class and what you do is FOIL

So its stands for

First

Outside

Inside

Last

(3x+6)(x+7)

(3x+6)(x+7) -- 3x² (if you have x times x it is x to the second power)

(3x+6)(x+7) -- 21x

(3x+6)(x+7) -- 6x

(3x+6)(x+7) -- 42

Now add 21x and 6x

27x +42+ 3x²

you must have added the 21 and 6 incorrectly.
