Answer:
Not quite sure what you are aiming for in this question; however, I guess that is true? A blind man wouldn´t simply rely on a lamp-post to get around. I guess what is being said is that statistics should be used when it is useful? There are plenty of ways people can analyze that statement.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
As tangents drawn from a common external point to a circle are congruent,
- 8x - 7 = 6x + 7
- 2x - 7 = 7 [subtract 2x from both sides]
- 2x = 14 [add 7 to both sides]
- x = 7 [divide both sides by 2]
Remark
The trick here is to realize that you have to find the number both have in order to find the difference. That means you take (effectively) 3/8 and 5/8 to find out how much each of them has. The 8 stands for the 136
Step One
Find the number of stamps Alex has. Remember his ratio is the smaller so he will have 3/8
Alex = 3/8 * 136
Alex = 408/8 = 51
Step 2
Find the number that Freddy has.
The total is 136
<u>Formula</u>
Freddy = Total - Alex
Freddy = 136 - 51
Freddy = 85
<u>Check</u>
Let us see if 5/8 * 136 = 85
5*136/8 = 680 / 8 = 85 So your answers are correct.
Difference
Difference = 85 - 51 = 34 which is how many more stamps Freddy has than Alex.
