Write and solve an equation of ratios:

900 students      45 teachers         
------------------  = -----------------  
          x               110 teachers     

Cross multiplying, we get (900)(110) / 45, or

                                                                 
so x = # of students in the high school = 2200   (answer)

Answer:

Option C. 2200 is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of teachers in middle school = 45

Number of students in middle school = 900

\text{Ratio of students to teacher in middle school = }\frac{900}{45}

Number of teachers in Local high school = 110

Let number of students in local high school = x

\text{Ratio of students to teacher in local high school = }\frac{x}{110}

But, according too the question, both the ratios are given proportional to each other.

⇒ Ratio of students to teacher in middle school = Ratio of students to teacher in local high school

\implies \frac{900}{45}=\frac{x}{110}\\\\\implies x=\frac{110\times 900}{45}\\\\\implies x = 2200

Hence, number of students required in the local high school = 2200

Therefore, Option C. 2200 is correct

The length of a shadow of a tree is 9 ft. The distance from the top of the tree to the tip of the shadow is 16 ft. what is the h
Margarita [4]
So for this, you'll be using the pythagorean theorem to solve for the height.

9^2+b^2=16^2

Solve the exponents to get 81+b^2=256

Subtract 81 on each side to get b^2=175

Square root each side, and your answer should be b= \sqrt{175} or 13.23 ft

- 5 ( 4x + 2 ) + 2x + 1 = - 151
ELEN [110]

Answer:

x=140/-18

x=-7+7/9

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(4x-2)+2x+1=151

We move all terms to the left:

-5(4x-2)+2x+1-(151)=0

<em>We add all the numbers together, and all the variables</em>

2x-5(4x-2)-150=0

<em>We multiply parentheses</em>

2x-20x+10-150=0

<em>We add all the numbers together, and all the variables</em>

-18x-140=0

<em>We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right</em>

-18x=140

x=140/-18

x=-7+7/9
