Answer:

270 = number who get news from print sources

630 =  number who get news from social media

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 3x = number who get news from print sources

and 7x = number who get news from social media

Then 3x + 7x = 900

10x = 900

x = 90

3x = 3(90) = 270 = number who get news from print sources

7x = 7(90) = 630 =  number who get news from social media

Check:  270/630 = 3/7 and 270 + 630 = 900

Which is a solution for 3 > f? f = 7 f = 9 f= 3 f =2?
Fed [463]

Answer:

F = 2

Step-by-step explanation: If you want to know which one is a solution, you have to substitute the numbers in for F.

F = 7:

3 > f

3 > 7

This is false because 3 is NOT greater than 7, it is less than 7.

F = 9:

3 > f

3 > 9

This is false because 3 is NOT greater than 9, it is less than 9.

F = 2:

3 > f

3 > 2

This is TRUE because 3 IS greater than 2.


Hope this help you!!! :)

Answer:

2. \left(\frac{36}{49}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}
