Answer:

36 elves

Step-by-step explanation:

Using proportions

We have space for 30 more giants

30 giants     x elves

------------- = ----------

120  full      144 elves  full

Using cross products

30*144 = x*120

Divide each side by 120

30*144/120 = 120x/120

36 = x

We can have 36 elves

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

make proportion giants to elves

120/144 = 90/x cross multiply

120x =144*90

120x =12960 divide by 120

x = 108

so if there are 90 giants in the theater there are  108 elves also

considering that total 144 elves can be  in the theater subtract 144 and 108 so 36 more elves can be admitted

Answer:

Part 3: 9 Dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

It says that the ratio they want you to put it in is dogs/students, so dogs are x, and students are y, so if there are 4 students for every dog, 36 students would require 9 dogs

And if the roles were switched it would be students x, dogs y, and there would be 9 students for 36 dogs :D

A landscaper is comparing the costs of potted plants from two nurseries. Nursery P charges $15 per plant plus a $50 delivery fee
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The required number of plants is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nursery P charges $15 per plant plus a $50 delivery fee on any order. Nursery Q charges $20 per plant and no delivery fee.

If x number of plants that must be delivered for the total cost to be the same at both nurseries, then

15x + 50 = 20x

⇒ 5x = 50

⇒ x = 10

Therefore, the required number of plants is 10. (Answer)
