The answer is B.
(the equation to solve this with is: a^2 + b^2 = c^2)
Answer: x= 12/5 or 2 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The race percent of population is
White: 45%
Hispanic: 27%
Black: 18%
Asian: 7%
Other: 3%
Part a.
The university has 2,815 Hispanic out of the 20,250 total population.
This is equivalent to (2815/20250)*100 = 13.9%
This percentage is less than 27%, so Hispanics do not have proportional representation.
Answer: The Hispanic students do not have proportional representation.
Part b.
Let x = the extra number of Hispanic students needed for proportional representation of 27% or 0.27.
Then
(2815 + x)/20250 = 0.27
2815 + x = 20250*0.27 = 5467.5
x = 5467.5 - 2815 = 2652.5
This means that 2,653 extra Hispanic students are required for a population of 20,250 students.
Answer: 2,653 extra Hispanic students.
