Ratio of men : women = 3 : 5

-

<u>Find total parts:</u>

3 + 5 = 8

-

<u>Find 1 part:</u>

5 parts = 140

1 part = 140 ÷ 5 = 28

-

<u>Find 8 parts (total):</u>

8 parts = 28 x 8 = 224

-

Answer: There are 224 employees

Please find question in photo below. I’m revising for a test I have in a few days, and I can’t figure this out. Please help!
Temka [501]

\large{\rm{\underline{\underline{Answer:}}}}

a) <u>n² + 6 </u>

~Here n is the number of term. So, put n = 1,2,3,4.... to get the term.

  • If n = 1, first term = 1² + 6 = 7
  • n = 2, second term = 10
  • n = 3, third temm = 15
  • n = 4, fourth term = 22
  • n = 10, tenth term = 106

b) <u>3n²</u>

  • If n = 1, first term = 3
  • n = 2, second term = 12
  • n = 3, third term = 27
  • n = 4, fourth term = 48
  • n = 10, tenth term = 300

Lucy had math and reading homework tonight. Lucy can solve each math problem in 5 minutes and she can read each page in 2.5 minu
drek231 [11]

Answer:

x=18,y=6,  graph is there for reference.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

x is the number of math problem Lucy solved.

y is the number of  pages she read.

She can do each math problem in  5 minutes, therefore she can solve x number of questions into 5 \times x=5x minutes.

She can read each page in 2.5 minutes, therefore she can read y pages in 2.5y minutes.

As per given detail,

5x+2.5y=105 equation 1.

And,

It is given that number of math problems Lucy solved is 3 times the number of pages she read.

x=3y equation 2.

We need to find x and y intercept of each of the equation to graph them.

For x-intercept put y=0

We will get x=\frac{105}{5} =21

Thus the point is (21,0)

Let us find y-intercept by assuming x=0

we get y=\frac{105}{2.5} =42

Thus the point is (42,0)

Join these two points.

Similarly considering the other equation x=3y

Here x-intercept would be at y=0

We will get x=0

Thus the point is (0,0)

Let us assume on more point, say x=30 , we get y=10

Thus the point is (30,10)

Join these two points.

We will get a point of intersection at (18,6)

Thus x=18 and y=6

What is the steps to solve 25 milligrams per day for one week
topjm [15]

I don't really know what the question is that needs to be solved, but
here's a suggestion that might help:

Since there are seven days in a week, you could multiply 25 milligrams
by 7, and that will tell you the number of milligrams in a whole week.
