Answer: 35 additional teachers are needed
-------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------
Explanation:
We have 2470 students and the ratio of students to teachers is 26:1. This means that for every teacher, there are 26 students. Put another way, we can set up this ratio
2470/x = 26/1
where x is the number of teachers. Cross multiply and solve for x
2470/x = 26/1
2470*1 = 26*x
2470 = 26x
26x = 2470
26x/26 = 2470/26
x = 95
So we have 95 teachers currently
-------------
Let y be the new number of teachers needed to bring the ratio down to 19:1
Using a similar idea as done above, we would have this ratio
2470/y = 19/1
Let's solve for y
2470/y = 19/1
2470*1 = 19*y
2470 = 19y
19y = 2470
19y/19 = 2470/19
y = 130
So we'll need 130 teachers to have the ratio be 19:1
The difference of the values is y - x = 130 - 95 = 35, which is the final answer. This is the additional amount of teachers needed.

Answer:
(f/g)(8) = -104/41
Step-by-step explanation:
Fill in the value for x and do the arithmetic.
f(8) = 3 -2·8 = 3 -16 = -13
g(8) = 1/8 +5 = (1+40)/8 = 41/8
Then the ratio is ...
(f/g)(8) = f(8)/g(8) = -13/(41/8) = -13(8)/41
(f/g)(8) = -104/41
5^x = 5^6
x = 6

Answer:
a. 0.48
b. 0.14
c. 0.47
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question
0 - 2 0.48
3 - 5 0.26
6 - 8 0.12
9- 11 0.09
12- 14 0.05
Based on the above information
a. The probability for fewer than three phobias is
= P( x < 3)
= 0.48
b. The probability for more than eight phobias is
= P( x >8)
= 0.09 + 0.05
= 0.14
c. Probability between 3 and 11 phobias is
= P(3 < x < 11)
= 0.26 + 0.12 + 0.09
= 0.47
