Answer:

The ratio of yellow balloons to blue balloons is 8:12

Then there are 100 balloons. Making the equation, we are able to have:

8X + 12X = 1000

20x = 1000

X = 50.

Yellow balloons = 8x = 8 * 50 = 400 yellow balloons

Blue balloons = 12X = 12 * 50 = 600 blue balloons

So there are  400 yellows balloons.

* Hopefully this helps:) Mark me the brainliest:)!!

If you have 8 yellow balloons for every 12 blue balloons, then if you have 20 balloons in total, 8 out of 20 of those balloons will be yellow. Then you can set up this ratio.

Then, you can use either cross multiplication or multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to help solve for x. Personally, I prefer cross multiplication.

Finally, solve for x and if you had 100 balloons, you will have 40 yellow balloons.

The school is planting a circular garden. If the
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

<u>The area of the circular garden is 28.3 square feet</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's recall that the area of a circle is π * r², therefore if the diameter of the circular garden is 6 feet, the area is:

Diameter = 6 feet ⇒ radius = (6/2) = 3 feet

Area of the circular garden = π * 3²

Area of the circular garden = 3.1416 * 9

Area of the circular garden = 28.2744

<u>Area of the circular garden = 28.3 square feet</u>

What is the measure of angle A?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

A = 19.47

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp / hypotenuse

sin A = 2/6

Take the inverse sin of each side

sin ^-1 ( sin A) = sin ^-1 (2/6)

A =19.47122063

To the nearest hundredth

A = 19.47

Convert 11.42424242 … to a rational expression in the form of a over b, where b ≠ 0.
Pavlova-9 [17]

x=11.4242....

100x=1142.4242....

100x-x = 99x = 1131

x=1131/99 = 11 42/99 (unreduced) = 11 14/33 (reduced fraction)

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

<em>2/3 of the jar was filled with flour</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

<em>A jar can hold 3/4 of a pound of flour. Austin empties 1/2 of a pound of flour into the jar. What fraction of the jar is filled? Enter your answer in numerical form.</em>

<em />

Given

<em>Amount a jar can hold a = 3/4 of a pound of flour</em>

<em />

<em>If Austin empties 1/2 of a pound of flour into the jar, then the amount emptied into the jar b = 1/2 pounds</em>

<em />

<em>Fraction of jar filled will be expressed as b/a as shown;</em>

<em>b/a = (1/2)/(3/4)</em>

<em>b/a = 1/2 ÷ 3/4</em>

<em>b/a = 1/2 * 4/3</em>

<em>b/a = 4/6</em>

<em>Simplify to the lowest term</em>

<em>a/b = 2*2/2*3</em>

<em>a/b = 2/3</em>

<em />

<em>Hence 2/3 of the jar was filled with flour</em>
