Answer:
k = - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 9 from both sides to get the constants on one side and the variables on the other
9 - 2k = 25
- 2k = 25 - 9
Simplify
- 2k = 16
Divide by -2 on both sides to isolate the variable, then simplify once more.
- 2k/ -2 = 16/ -2
k = 16/ -2
k = -8
Answer: 35 additional teachers are needed

Explanation:
We have 2470 students and the ratio of students to teachers is 26:1. This means that for every teacher, there are 26 students. Put another way, we can set up this ratio
2470/x = 26/1
where x is the number of teachers. Cross multiply and solve for x
2470/x = 26/1
2470*1 = 26*x
2470 = 26x
26x = 2470
26x/26 = 2470/26
x = 95
So we have 95 teachers currently
-------------
Let y be the new number of teachers needed to bring the ratio down to 19:1
Using a similar idea as done above, we would have this ratio
2470/y = 19/1
Let's solve for y
2470/y = 19/1
2470*1 = 19*y
2470 = 19y
19y = 2470
19y/19 = 2470/19
y = 130
So we'll need 130 teachers to have the ratio be 19:1
The difference of the values is y - x = 130 - 95 = 35, which is the final answer. This is the additional amount of teachers needed.
Answer:
You will get 13 groups.
Step-by-step explanation:
324 / 24 = 13.5 So there are 13 groups with 5 left over. Hope this helps.
ED = x - 5 <em>given</em>
DG = 4x - 38 <em>given</em>
ED = DG <em>definition of midpoint</em>
x - 5 = 4x - 38 <em>substitution</em>
-5 = 3x - 38 <em>subtraction property of equality (subtracted x from both sides)</em>
33 = 3x <em>addition property of equality (added 38 to both sides)</em>
11 = x <em>division property of equality (divided 3 from both sides)</em>
ED = x - 5 → ED = 11 - 5 → ED = 6 <em>substitution</em>
since ED = DG, then DG = 6 <em>transitive property</em>
ED + DG = EG <em>segment addition property</em>
6 + 6 = EG <em>substitution</em>
12 = EG <em>simplified like terms</em>
Answer: 12
