Answer:

Population of Town A = 19,575

Population of Town B = 52,200

Population of Town C = 20,880

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of..

A : B = 3 : 8

B : C = 5 : 2

Both A : B and B : C have B in their ratios. What we can do is make B the same in both ratios and then create a ratio between all three towns.

A : B = (3 : 8) x 5 = 15 : 40

B : C = (5 : 2) x 8 = 40 : 16

A : B : C

15 : 40 : 16

Now, to find the population of each town we can write the following equation using the numbers from our ratio between all three towns and set it to the given population.

15x + 40x + 16x = 92,655

Solve for x.

71x = 92,655

x = 1,305

Finally, we can use the value of x to find the population of each town.

Population of Town A = 15x

Population of Town A = 15(1,305)

Population of Town A = 19,575

Population of Town B = 40x

Population of Town B = 40(1,305)

Population of Town B = 52,200

Population of Town C = 16x

Population of Town C = 16(1,305)

Population of Town C = 20,880

~Hope this helps!~

What are the values of the variables in the triangle below? If your answer is not an integer, leave it in simplest radical form.
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

<h2>x = 12</h2><h2 /><h2>y = 4√3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>To find x we use cosine</u>

cos∅ = adjacent / hypotenuse

x is the adjacent

8√3 is the hypotenuse

cos 30 = x / 8√3

x = 8√3 cos 30

<h3>x = 12</h3>

<u>To find y we use sine</u>

sin∅ = opposite / hypotenuse

y is the opposite

8√3 is the hypotenuse

sin 30 = y / 8√3

y = 8√3 sin 30

<h3>y = 4√3</h3>

Hope this helps you

I need to know the answer I’m working on rational numubers
lesya [120]

Answer:

Fraction Form: \frac{11}{24}

Decimal Form: 0.4583

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the fraction rule: \frac{-a}{b} = - \frac{a}{b}

\frac{-5}{12} = - \frac{5}{12}

- \frac{5}{12} + \frac{7}{8}

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 12 and 8: 24

- \frac{5}{12} x  \frac{2}{2} = - \frac{10}{24} \\\\\frac{7}{8} x  \frac{3}{3} = \frac{21}{24} \\\\- \frac{10}{24} + \frac{21}{24}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a}{c} + \frac{b}{c}= \frac{a + b}{c}\\\\\frac{-10 + 21}{24} \\\\-10 + 21 = 11\\\\\frac{11}{24}
