there are 270 at Colfax Middle School, where the ratio of boys to girls is 5:4. there are 180 students at Winthrop Middle School

where the ratio of boys to girls is 4:5. The two schools hold a dance and all students from both schools attend. What fraction of the students at the dance are girls? Make sure to show all work.

Colfax:

Add the ratio numbers together:

5 + 4 = 9

Divide total students by that:

270 / 9 = 30

Multiply each ratio by 30:

Boys = 30 *5 = 150

Girls = 30 * 4 = 120


Do the same for Winthrop:

4 +5 = 9

180 /9 = 20

Boys = 20 * 4 = 80

Girls = 20 * 5 = 100


Total students = 270 + 180 = 450

Total Girls = 120 + 100 = 220


Fraction that are girls = 220 / 450 which reduces to 22/45

Answer:

It's C

Step-by-step explanation:

It's C because when you find the least common denominator of 3 and 5 it's 15. So then you convert the fractions to get 6/15+5/15=11/15, which leaves 4/15 left.

The table shown below represents a function. Which of the following values could not be used to complete the table?
maksim [4K]
-5 could not be used in the table again, because we have the value of x=-5 for the value of 15. Therefore correct option is C.

Answer: C. -5

Can I get help with this please

Answer:

3)  1 5/6 mi

4)  a. 4 cm, 6 ft

    b. 6.4 cm, 9.6 ft

    c. same as part a

Step-by-step explanation:

3) Each of the given distances appears twice in the sum of side measures that is the perimeter. Hence by walking the perimeter twice, Kyle walks each of the given distances 4 times. His total walk is ...

  4×1/3 + 4×1/8 = 4/3 + 4/8

  = 1 1/3 + 1/2 = 1 2/6 + 3/6

  = 1 5/6 . . . . . miles

___

4) Since the figure is rectilinear (all angles are right angles, and all sides are straight lines), the sum of partial dimensions in one direction is equal to the whole dimension in that direction.

a. 8 cm = 4 cm + x

  8 cm - 4 cm = x = 4 cm

The distance in the room is ...

  (4 cm)×(1.5 ft/cm) = 6 ft

b. 10.3 cm = 3.9 cm + y

  10.3 cm - 3.9 cm = y = 6.4 cm

The distance in the room is ...

  (6.4 cm)×(1.5 ft/cm) = 9.6 ft

c. The answer to part b was obtained in the same way as the answer to part a.  The unknown dimension is the difference of given dimensions. The actual length in the room is the model length multiplied by the inverse of the scale factor.

Find the angle theta in radians.<br> ( PLEASE SHOW STEPS )
yKpoI14uk [10]
Hello!

As you can see, we have a radius of 6. If we divide, this means that this is 2.5 radians. To convert radians to degrees we use the formula below.

\frac{180}{ \pi }x

First of all we divide 180 by pi.

180/\pi≈57.3

Now we multiply by 2.5

57.3(2.5)=143.25°

Note that the angle we see is obtuse, or greater than 90°.

Therefore, ∠<span>θ</span>≈143.25°

Now we need to convert this back into radians. This can be represented by the equation below.

\frac{ \pi }{180}x

First we divide pi by 180 then multiply by our angle.

\pi/180(143.25)≈2.5

Therefore, our angle theta is about 2.5 radians.

I hope this helps!
