Answer: 110 Women !

Step-by-step explanation:

Call their numbers 4x to 5x.

Since there are a total of 198 people,

4x + 5x = 198

9x = 198

x = 22

so that there are

88 men and 110 women.

The perimeter of a triangle is 170 feet and the sides are in the ratio of 25:14:12. Find the area of the triangle.
Viktor [21]
Let
x,y, and z the long sides of the triangle 

we know that

x+y+z=170 ft------> equation 1
x/y=25/14----> y=14x/25------> equation 2
y/z=14/12-----> equation 3
x/z=25/12----> z=12x/25------> equation 4

substitute equation 2 and equation 4 in equation 1
x+[14x/25]+[12x/25]=170------> multiply by 25 both sides
25x+14x+12x=4250
51x=4250
x=4250/51
x=250/3
y=14x/25------> y=(250/3)*(14/25)----> y=140/3
z=12y/14-----> (140/3)*12/14----> z=40

Using Heron's formula,
Area of the triangle = √s (s-a) (s-b) (s-c)
where s is the semiperimeter
s=170/2-----> s=85 ft
Area=√85*[85-250/3]*[85-140/3]*[85-40]
Area=9.22*[1.67]*[38.33]*[45]------> Area=26558.21 ft²

the answer is
26558.21 ft²

A lunch bill $12 before tax. If tax on the bill is 7.5%, what is the total cost of the lunch including tax?
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

$12.90

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, multiply the cost before tax with tax, and then add the number gotten to the original amount.

12 x 7.5% = 12 x 0.075 = 0.9

12 + 0.9 = 12.9

$12.90 is your answer.
