Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step Explanation:

1/2 * x = (1/3) * y

x / y = 1/3 / 1/2

x / y = (1/3) * 2 = 2/3

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have 'x' students who like math and 'y' students that like science, we can formulate that:

Half of x likes math and science, and also one third of y likes math and science, so:

(1/2) * x = (1/3) * y

x / y = (1/3) / (1/2)

x / y = (1/3) * 2 = 2/3

So the ratio of the number of students who like math to the number of students who like science is 2/3

Leni [432]
<h3>Answer: 985</h3>

=============================================

Work Shown:

A = amount after t hours

P = initial amount = 100

r = growth rate in decimal form = 0.10

t = number of hours = 24

--------

A = P*(1+r)^t

A = 100(1+0.10)^24

A = 100*(1.10)^24

A = 100*9.84973267580762

A = 984.973267580762

A = 985

Rachel mows 5 lawns in 8 hours. At this rate how many lawns can she mow in 40 hour?
posledela

We can think of this as an equality

5 Lawns = 8 Hours

If she needs 40 hours, you can multiply 8 hours by 5 to get 40, but now it's not balanced. So, you need to multiply 5 to the other side too so:

5 x (5) = 8 x (5)

Therefore she mows 25 Lawns in 40 Hours

find the perimeter of an isosceles triangle with side lengths of 5+x, 5+x, and xy. Write in simplest form.
Zinaida [17]
<h3>Answer: perimeter = 10+2x+xy</h3>

To get the perimeter, you add up all the outer sides

side1+side2+side3 = (5+x)+(5+x)+(xy) = 10+2x+xy

The like terms 5 and 5 add to 10. The other pair of like terms x and x add to 2x. There isn't anything to pair with xy, so we leave it as is.
