The team won 4 gold medals, 4 silver medals and 10 bronze medals.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total medals won = 18

Ratio of gold, silver and bronze = 2:2:5

Let,

x be the original number.

Therefore,

Gold medals = 2x

Silver medals = 2x

Bronze medals = 5x

According to given statement;

2x+2x+5x=18\\9x=18

Dividing both sides by 9

\frac{9x}{9}=\frac{18}{9}\\x=2

Gold medals = 2x = 2(2) = 4

Silver medals = 2x = 2(2) = 4

Bronze medals = 5x = 5(2) = 10

The team won 4 gold medals, 4 silver medals and 10 bronze medals.

Tenemos 2000 baldosascon las que nos proponrmos embaldosar dos habitaciones.Para la 1ª gastamos 3/5 de ellas,y con la 2ª,3/4de l
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

En la primera habitación son usadas 1200 baldosas.

En la segunda habitación son usadas 600 baldosas.

Sobraron 200 baldosas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tienes 2000 baldosas, con las que se propone embaldosar dos habitaciones.

Para la primera habitación se han gastado \frac{3}{5} de las baldosas. Esto se expresa como:

\frac{3}{5}*2000

Para multiplicar una fracción por un número entero, el número entero n se puede escribir como la fracción \frac{n}{1}. Luego se multiplica los numeradores y denominadores. En este caso:

\frac{3}{5}*2000=\frac{3}{5}*\frac{2000}{1} =\frac{3*2000}{5*1} = \frac{6000}{5}

Para reducir la fraccion, divide 40 entre 10

\frac{6000}{5} = 6000 ÷5= 1200

Entonces <u><em>en la primera habitación son usadas 1200 baldosas.</em></u> Por lo que las que quedan se calcula como:

2000 - 1200= 800 baldosas

De esta cantidad de baldosas que quedaron, \frac{3}{4} son usadas para embaldosar la segunda habitación.  Esto se expresa como:

\frac{3}{4}*800

Resolviendo de igual manera que en el caso de la primer habitación se obtiene:

\frac{3}{4}*800=\frac{3}{4}*\frac{800}{1} =\frac{3*800}{4*1} =\frac{2400}{4}= 2400 ÷ 4= 600

Entonces <u><em>en la segunda habitación son usadas 600 baldosas.</em></u> Por lo que, teniendo en cuenta que se tenían 800 baldosas que quedaron de la primera habitación, las baldosas restantes se calculan como:

800 - 600= 200 baldosas

<u><em>Sobraron 200 baldosas.</em></u>

Find value of X<br><br> Thank you
erastova [34]

Answer:

x = 98

Step-by-step explanation:

If angle D is the center then

x + 4 = 2 × (x - 47)

x + 4 = 2x - 94

4 + 94 = 2x - x

98 = x
