OUT OF 32 STUDENTS IN A CLASS, 5 SAID THEY RIDE THEIR BIKES TO SCHOOL. BASED ON THESE RESULTS, HOW MANY OF THE 800 STUDENTS IN

svet-max [94.6K]

Let, the total number of students in school that ride the bike to school be "x"
Now,
Using ratio and proportion, we get,
$\frac{5}{32} = \frac{x}{800}$

$\frac{5}{32}*800 = \frac{x}{800} *800$

$\frac{4000}{32} =x$

$125 =x$

$x=125$

So, out of 800 students, 125 ride their bike to school.

Solve the equation 7=4s+19

lyudmila [28]

Isolate the s. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

Subtract 19 from both sides

7 (-19) = 4s + 19 (-19)

7 - 19 = 4s

-12 = 4s

Isolate the s. Divide 4 from both sides

-12/4 = 4s/4

s = -12/4

s = -3

-3 is your answer for s

hope this helps
