Answer:

In a group of 216 people, I would expect 45 people to have a gym membership.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

90 out of 120 people said they like to work out

5 out of every 18 of the people who like to work out have a gym membership.

To Find : At the same rates, in a group of 216 people, predict how many you would expect to have a gym membership.

Solution :

Let x out of 216 like to work out

We are given that 90 out of 120 people said they like to work out

Since the rate is same for both the cases

⇒\frac{x}{216} =\frac{90}{120}

⇒x =\frac{90}{120} *216

⇒x =\frac{19440}{120}

⇒x =162

Thus 162 out 216 like to work out.

Since we are given that 5 out of every 18 has membership

So, first we need to calculate how many groups of 18 are there in 162

⇒\frac{162}{18}

⇒ 9

So, there are 9 groups of 18 in 162 people

Since we know that out of 1 group of 18 there are 5 people who has membership

So,  if there are 9 groups of 18 so there will 9*5 = 45 people who will have membership .

Hence , in a group of 216 people, I would expect 45 people to have a gym membership.

Answer:

Second hand will turn through 74π radians.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 37 minutes left in the class. We need to find by how much angle will the second hand turn before the end of the class.

When a second hand completes one full rotation along the clock it covers 360 degrees and completes 60 seconds.

This means:

In 60 seconds, the second hand turns by 360 degrees

Since, 60 seconds = 1 minute, we can write:

In 1 minute, the second hand turns = 360 degrees

360 degrees is equal to 2π radians. So,

In 1 minute, the second hand turns = 2π radians

Multiplying both sides by 37 gives us:

In 37 minutes, the second turns = 2π radians x 37 = 74π radians

hjlf

Answer:

12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Alyssa takes part in the triathlon. She cycles 4/5 of the route, runs 1/8 of the route, and swims the rest of the way. She swims 0.9 miles. Find the total distance of the triathlon route.

Total distance Alyssa cycled and ran =

\frac{4}{5} + \frac{1}{8}

\frac{32 + 5}{40} = \frac{37}{40}

Distance she swam =  1 - 37/40 = 3/40

3/40 of the distance is 0.9

the total distance = 40/3 x 0.9 = 12 miles
