Answer:

<u>36 tables are used to seat  the students at the banquet: 12 rectangular and 24 round.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Round tables = 8 seats

Rectangular tables = 12 seats

Ratio of round tables to rectangular tables = 2:1

Number of students = 336

2. How many tables are used to seat 336 students at the banquet, if no table has an empty seat?

x = Number of rectangular tables

2x = Number of round tables

Let's solve for x, using this equation:

12x + 8 (2x) = 336

12x + 16x = 336

28x = 336

x = 336/28

x = 12 ⇒ 2x = 24

12 + 24 = 36

<u>36 tables are used to seat  the students at the banquet: 12 rectangular and 24 round.</u>

ipn [44]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

A 30° angle is measured 30° counterclockwise while a -30° angle is measured 30° clockwise. Therefore, you can say -30°=360-30°=330° because 30° is a reference angle located in Quadrant IV.

Which equation represents the relationship between the side length, x, and the perimeter, y? y = one-fourth x y = 4x y = x + 13.
elixir [45]

Answer: B.

Y = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the side of a shape is x

The perimeter of the shape is y

Perimeter of a rectangle can be expressed as:

P = 2L + 2W

Where L = length and W = width

But if the shape is a square, and the side of the shape is x, then, the perimeter will be

P = 4x

Where perimeter P = Y

Therefore, perimeter Y will be;

Y = 4x

Therefore, the correct answer is B which is:

Y = 4x
