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
Answer:
17 teaspoons
Step-by-step explanation:
1 tbs : 3 tsp
Always start by converting mixed numbers into fractions;
multiply the whole number part by the denominator (under part) of the fraction part and add this to the numerator (upper part);
Then simply apply the ratio.
Hello there!
The sum of two numbers (x + y) is 8 (=8).
Their product (x * y) is 15 (=15).
x + y = 8
x * y = 15
First, we know that the two number must be positive and under 8, as the product is positive.
Let's list out some numbers that are from 1 to 8 that sum up to 8;
1 + 7
2 + 6
3 + 5
4 + 4
Now, we need to multiply the two numbers that add up to 8, and see which makes a product of 15.
1 * 7 = 7, this does not work.
2 * 6 = 12, this does not work.
3 * 5 = 15, this works!
4 * 4 = 16, this does not work.
Since we are looking for the larger number in our pairs, let's pick the largest one out of the correct pair, which is 5.
The largest number is 5.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
The rectangle has a width of 4 and a height of 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height of the rectangle be H and the width be W.
We know the height of the rectangle is twice the width, so:
H = 2W
The area of a rectangle, A, is given by A = W * H, so in this case:
32 = W * 2W
32 = 2W²
W² = 16
W = 4
Knowing that the width is 4, the height must be 8. This gives us an area of 32.
