Answer:
54 teachers
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
The ratio of teachers to students on a field trip to New York City is 2 to 9.
That is the ratio is 2:9
We are told that there are 243 students
Required
We want to find the number of teachers
Step two:
Applying the part to part method we have
let the number of teachers be x
2/9= x/243
cross multiply we have
9x= 243*2
9x= 486
divide both sides by 9
x= 54
Hence there are 54 teachers
Answer:
A y = x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The line starts at 1 on the y-axis so the u intercept will be 1
Answer:
36 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so wouldnt you have to subtract 54 minus 18? and if so then
To find the area multiply the length by the width.
The length and width of a square are the same.
Area = 15 x 15 = 225 square feet.
Answer:
2%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the first number
It increases by 70 %
The new number is
m = x+ .70x
= 1.7x
Let y be the second number
It decreases by 40 %
The new number is
n =y - .40 y
= .6y
The product of the original numbers is xy
The product of the new number is
mn = (1.7x * .6y) = 1.02xy
The new number is larger than the old number so it is an increase.
Percent increase is new - original divided by original times 100%
Percent increase = (1.02 xy - xy)
----------------- * 100%
xy
= .02 xy
------- * 100 %
xy
= .02 * 100 %
= 2%
