Last year there were 225 employees and 25 supervisors at Corpcon Company. If 27 more employees are hired, how many supervisors n
MrRa [10]
In order to solve this, you need to put it into a fraction form.

First for every 225 employees there's 27 supervisors.
25 x
___ = ___
225 252

I got the 252 by adding 225+27(who are the new employees)

So then you need to cross multiply. And get them to equal the same number.

So 25×252= 6,300
Then Divide 6,300 by the old denominator 225.
6,300÷225= 28 new employees

Therefore there will be a total of 28 employees.

Hope this helped!

What is the solution to the proportion?<br> 5/x = 2/16
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

I believe the answer is X=40

Step-by-step explanation:

cross multiply 5*16 = X * 2

Multiply 5*16

80= X*2

Add '-2x' to each side of the equation

80 + -2x = 2x + -2x

Combine like terms

80 + -2x = 0

Add '-80' to each side of the equation.

80 + -80 + -2x = 0 + -80

Combine like terms: 80 + -80 = 0

0 + -2x = 0 + -80

-2x = 0 + -80

Combine like terms: 0 + -80 = -80

-2x = -80

Divide each side by '-2'.

x = 40

Simplifying

x = 40

Hope this helped :)

Point K is on line JL. given JL =4x, JK= 2x+3, and KL=x, determine the numerical length of kl​
balandron [24]

Hi! I'm happy to help!

Our total line is JL (4x), and it is split into two parts: JK, and KL. We have our values, and we know that JK+KL=JL, so we can substitute our values and solve for x:

4x=(2x+3)+(x)

4x=3x+3

To solve for x, we have to isolate it on one side of the equation.

First, let's subtract 3x from both sides so that we can isolate x:

4x=3x+3

-3x -3x

x=3

<u>So, our x=3, which means that KL=3.</u>

I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D
