Step-by-step explanation:
Total students = 1575
No of females = 870
No of males = 1575 - 870 = 705
Ratio of females to males
870 : 705
In simplest form
58 : 47
3n + (4n - 2) = 15
is how this equation would be displayed.
Now let's solve for x.
We can distribute a 1 to each term in the parentheses (which doesn't do much) to allow us to combine like terms.
3n + 4n - 2 = 15
Combine like terms.
7n - 2 = 15
Add 2 to both sides.
7n = 17
Divide both sides by 7.
n = 17/7
Answer:
y = 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
10y - 5 = 20 ( add 5 to both sides )
10y = 25 ( divide both sides by 10 )
y = 2.5
