Answer:
40 students
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, one is given the ratio ( 8 : 3 ), since a ratio is another way of writing a fraction one can rewrite it as;
(8) represent the number of students who want to learn about magnets, and (3) represents the number of students who want to learn about magic tricks.
In the problem, it is also given that 25 more students wanted to learn about magnets compared to magic tricks. If one uses the parameter (x) to represent the factor by which the fraction
is reduced, then one can get the equation;
8x = 3x + 25
Use inverse operations to solve,
8x = 3x + 25
-3x
5x = 25
/5
x = 5
Substitute back in to find out how many students want to learn about magnets,
8x
= 8(5)
= 40
Answer:
b and c
Step-by-step explanation:
The Triangle Inequality Theorem lets us know that the sum of the two shortest sides of the triangle must be greater than the third side of the triangle.
In both A and D, the sum of the shortest two sides are equal to, not greater than the third side, so they will not form a triangle.
In B, 12+20 is 32, which is greater than 25. And in C, 18+24 is 42, which is greater than 30, so they both will form a triangle.
Perform the indicated multiplication first: -15 + 5q + 4 = 5q - 11
Note that 5q appears on both sides of this equation. Cancelling, we get :
-11 = -11. This is always true. Thus, -5(3-q) +4=5q-11 is true for all q.
