A prize was awarded to 24 women and 1130 men. a. What fraction of the prize winners were women? b. What fraction were men?

Brums [2.3K]

a) The fraction of women is $\frac{12}{577}$

b) The fraction of men is $\frac{565}{577}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

In this part of the problem, we are asked to find what fraction of the prize winners are women.

We have:

$w=24$ (number of prizes awarded to women)

$m=1130$ (number of prizes awarded to men)

First of all, we calculate the total number of prizes awarded:

$p=w+m=24+1130=1154$

Now we find the fraction of prize winners who were women, which is given by:

$p(w) = \frac{w}{p}=\frac{24}{1154}$

And we can simplify by dividing both numerators and denominators by 2,

$p(w)=\frac{24}{1154}=\frac{12}{577}$

b)

The total number of prizes awarded is

$p=1154$

The number of prizes assigned to men is

$m=1130$

Therefore, the fraction of prize winners who were men is

$p(m)=\frac{m}{p}=\frac{1130}{1154}=\frac{565}{577}$

where we simplified the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2.

I have to find the angle measurements of a interior triangle a is 4x b is 7x-2 and c is 5x-10

RSB [31]

Answer:

$m\angle a=48^o\\m\angle b=82^o\\m\angle c=50^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The sum of the interior angles in any triangle must be equal to 180 degrees

so

$m\angle a+m\angle b+m\angle c=180^o$

substitute the given values

$4x^o+(7x-2)^o+(5x-10)^o=180^o$

solve for x

$(16x-12)^o=180^o$

$16x=180+12\\16x=192\\x=12$

Find the angle measurements

$m\angle a=4(12)=48^o$

$m\angle b=7(12)-2=82^o$

$m\angle c=5(12)-10)=50^o$

Can i get some help on my test please?

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Not proportional.

Step-by-step explanation:

The butterfly method multiples it like a butterfly. Ex. 5 times 3 is 15. 8 times 2 is 16. Therefore, not proportional.
