Set up the equation by writing the number of students in the ratio as a fraction:
3/4= (245-x)/x Cross multiply:
3x= 4(245-x) Multiply on right:
3x= 980-4x Add 4x on both sides:
7x= 980 Divide both sides by 7:
x= 140 this is how many girls there are. And:
245-140= 105= boys
Answer:
1) $250
2) $200 + $50x
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
$200 (start up fee) + $50 * ( 1 month ) = $200 + $50 = $250
2)
$200 (start up fee) + $50 * ( x months ) = $200 + $50x
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
d = 8t
Step-by-step explanation:
A lot of math is about matching patterns. Here, the pattern you can match is given in the problem statement:
d = 6t . . . . . equation for distance traveled at 6 miles per hour
You are asked to write an equation for distance traveled at 8 miles per hour. You can see the number 6 in the above equation matches the "miles per hour" of the traveler. This should give you a clue that when the "miles per hour" changes from 6 to 8, the number in the equation will do likewise.
The equation you want is ...
d = 8t . . . . . equation for distance traveled at 8 miles per hour
Answer:
B. 7/2, -8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
