The ratio of men to women in a certain factory is 3 to 4. There are 210 men.

1 answer:

5 0

There are 490 workers

3/4 = 210/x
Cross multiply, 210x4 and 3x
You're then left with 3x = 840, divide both sides by 3
This answer is 280 and represents the amount of female workers

Then just add 210 and 280, your answer is 490. Hope that helps!

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Move the 6 to the other side: x^2 +4x =6

2. Square half the coefficient of the x term: (4/2)^2 = 4

3. Add this 4, and then subtract this 4, from x^2 + 4x:

x^2 +4x + 4 - 4 =6

4. Rewrite this perfect square as the square of a binomial:

(x + 2)^2 - 4 = 6

5. Add 4 to both sides: (x + 2)^2 = 10

6. Find the sqrt of both sides: x + 2 = √
