A decimal is "." this symbol is used to separate whole numbers from a number value that is less than 1. Decimals basically puts things in its correct "place" according to the place value chart. | Example : $ 1.70 ; Without the decimal point this would be 170$ and in reality it is only one dollar and seventy cents. |
How many males and how many females would there be if the total enrollment is 15000?
Ratio is
90 males 15000 - x
------------- = ---------------
125 fem x
Then 90x = 1875000 - 125x, or 215x = 1875000
x = approx 8720 females
and 15000-8720, or 6279 males
If every male finds a dance partner, that would leave (8720-6279) females, or 2440, without dance partners. ;(
Check: is the male:female ratio near 90:125?
Is 6279:8720 approx equal to 90:125?
Yes. 0.72 (approx) = 0.72 (approx).
Okay so there are 52 weeks in a year and she runs 12 miles every week so multiply 52 times 12 which equals 624
The dimensions of the rectangle are 150 m and 75 m respectively.
Let x be the length of the rectangular area and y be the width of the rectangular area.
Its area A = xy
Given that its area is 11,000 m², xy = 11000 m² (1)
Also, since the bounding side of the building is 150 m long and the fencing is 300 m, the perimeter of the rectangular area is P = 150 m + 300 m = 450 m.
Also, the perimeter of the rectangular area is P = 2(x + y)
Since P = 450 m
2(x + y) = 450 m
x + y = 225 m (2)
Since the bounding side of the building represents one dimension of the rectangle, x = 150 m.
Substituting x into (2), we get the other dimension
x + y = 225
150 + y = 225
y = 225 m - 150 m
y = 75 m
So, the dimensions of the rectangle are 150 m and 75 m respectively.
