Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is D because the question is asking for girls to boys. So anything that has 5 in it is wrong because it isn't asking for teachers, which eliminates A. So since it is asking <u>girls</u><u> </u><u>to</u><u> </u><u>boys</u> the number order has to be 48 then 41 because it is asking for girls first then to boys. So that makes B wrong. When it comes to the fraction part of the ratio the first number it is asking for (which is girls) <em><u>alwa</u><u>ys</u></em> goes on top. So that eliminates C which leaves only answer to be D.

You are converting the numbers to a word problem.

1. 5+x = the number five plus x

2. 5-x= the number 5 minus x

3. 5x= five times x

4. 5/x= five divided by x

5. three-fourths of x plus 2

6. two minus three-fourths of x

7. 3 times x plus 10

8. ten times x plus three

Solve the absolute value equation:<br><br> |3x+3|=10

yarga [219]

Answer:

x = 2.33

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when there is an absolute value sign, the value inside the bars is always positive.

=> I3x + 3I = 10
=> 3x + 3 = 10
=> 3x = 10 - 3
=> 3x = 7
=> x = 7/3
=> x = 2.33 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)

Hence, the value of x is 2.33.

The distance between the cities Atlanta and Indianapolis is 540 miles. A motorcycle's speed is 48 mph. For a car it takes 2.25 h

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

It will take them 5 hours to meet if they start moving towards eachother simultaneusly.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance, s = 540 miles

Motocycle's speed, v = 48 mph

Time for motorcycle to cover 48 miles, t = $\frac{Distance}{Speed}$

= $\frac{540}{48}$ = 11.25 h

For a car it takes 2.25 hours less than 11.25 for motorcycle:

Time for car than becomes: 11.25 - 2.25 = 9 h

Speed for car would be v(c) = $\frac{Distance}{Time}$

= $\frac{540}{9}$ = 60 mph

<em>For finding when they will meet, we will need relative speed: </em>

Since they are moving towards each other the relative speed is the sum of speed of car and the speed of motorcycle

Relative Speed = 48 + 60 = 108 mph

Distance = 540 miles

Time = $\frac{Distance}{Speed}$

= $\frac{540}{108}$

= 5 hours
