there are a total of 100 balloons.if the ratio of yellow balloons to blue balloons is 8 to 12,how many of them are yellow?

1 answer:

8 0

The ratio of yellow balloons to blue balloons is 8:12
Then there are 100 balloons. Making the equation, we are able to have:
8X + 12X = 1000
20x = 1000
X = 50.

Yellow balloons = 8x = 8 * 50 = 400 yellow balloons
Blue balloons = 12X = 12 * 50 = 600 blue balloons

So there are 400 yellows balloons.

Use the Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2= c^2

a= one side= 68 mi
b= second side= 80 mi
c= hypotenuse= Greenville to Columbia mi

a^2 + b^2= c^2

68^2 + 80^2= c^2
square each number

4,624 + 6,400= c^2

11,024= c^2
take square root of both sides

104.995 mi= c

ANSWER: The distance from Greenville to Columbia is 104.995 miles (rounded to 105 miles).

Hope this helps! :)
