Let 6x represent the men
5x represents the women
The ratio of men to women is 6 to 5 or 6/5
6x / 5x = 1500/ W where W is the number of women
6/5 = 1500/W
W = 1250 women
490 x 2/5 = 980/5 = 196 girls at Garland
945 x 5/7 = 4725/7 = 675 girls at Bowood
Bowood has more girls:
675-196 = 479 more
Answer:
ABCD is a parallelogram.
Step-by-step explanation:
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral that has two parallel and equal pairs of opposite sides.
From the given diagram,
Given: AD = BC and AD || BC, then:
i. AB = DC (both pairs of opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent)
ii. <ADC = < BCD and < DAB = < CBA
thus, AD || BC and AB || DC (both pairs of opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel)
iii. < BAC = < DCA (alternate angle property)
iv. Join BD, line AC and BC are the diagonals of the quadrilateral which bisect each other. The two diagonals are at a right angle to each other.
v. <ADC + < BCD + < DAB + < CBA =
(sum of angles in a quadrilateral equals 4 right angles)
Therefore, ABCD is a parallelogram.
