Answer:

144

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of men to women working for a company is 8 to 5.

Total men and women working as per the ratio is 8+5 = 13

So the ratio of men to total  is  

the ratio of women to total  is  

there are 234 employees total

To find the number of men works , we make a proportion

Cross multiply it

8 * 234 = 13x

1872 = 13x

Divide by 13 on both sides

x= 144

15c² - 5c. Factorise completely ​
KATRIN_1 [288]

Looking at the problem, what we must do to complete this question is to completely factor the expression that was provided.  The expression that was provided is 15c^2 - 5c.

The first step that we must do is to take a look at the expression and see what the two pieces of the expression have in common.  We can see that both 15c^2 and -5c have the number 5 and the variable c associated with them so we can factor out those two.

<u>Factor out 5c</u>

  • 15c^2 - 5c
  • 5c(\frac{15c^2}{5c}) - 5c(\frac{5c}{5c})
  • 5c(3c) - 5c(1)
  • 5c(3c - 1)

Now we have completely factored out the expression that was provided in the problem statement and we came to final answer of 5c(3c - 1).

Find the surface area of the regular pyramid.
spayn [35]

Answer:

Answer = 93.6

Step-by-step explanation:

frist multipy 9 x 13 to get 117 than divided it by 2 = 58.5, than times it by 3 since there is three sides.

(58.5 x 3 is 175.5)      

Than for the base multipy 7.8 x 9 = 70.2, but since its a tri, divided it by 2 = 35.1.

Add 58.5 and 35.1 to get 93.6

Which statement is correct?<br> A. <br> B. <br> C. <br> D.
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

B

Step by Step explanation:

So since the equation says that 8 is less than the square root for b, It is correct because the square root of 72 would be 8.48528137424. Which of course 8, is less than that. But it also says that the square root of 72 is less than 9. Which based on my calculations would be correct.
