120-3/5
x-2/5
cross multiply the values
therefore:120×3/5=48
48=2/5x
48÷2/5=2/5÷2/5x
80=x

Answer:

80 women

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio of men to women of 3:2 means that for 3 men that use the gym 2 women use the gym, so using a rule of three we can determinate how many women were on the gym that day if 120 men were there, like this:

3 men ------ 2 women

120 men ------ X

$X = \frac{(120men)(2women)}{3men}=80 women$

Then, there were 80 women for the 120 men that were in the gym.

Why do banks give out there credit cards easily and offer to reward tgem

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

If the cardholder has a participating cash back rewards program, the credit card issuer simply shares some of the merchant fees with the consumer. The goal is to incentivize people to use their credit cards when making payments rather than cash or debit cards, which earns them no rewards.

Find the two smallest possible solutions to part 1a

bixtya [17]

<h3>Answer: A. 5/12, 25/12</h3>

============================

Work Shown:

12*sin(2pi/5*x)+10 = 16

12*sin(2pi/5*x) = 16-10

12*sin(2pi/5*x) = 6

sin(2pi/5*x) = 6/12

sin(2pi/5*x) = 0.5

2pi/5*x = arcsin(0.5)

2pi/5*x = pi/6+2pi*n or 2pi/5*x = 5pi/6+2pi*n

2/5*x = 1/6+2*n or 2/5*x = 5/6+2*n

x = (5/2)*(1/6+2*n) or x = (5/2)*(5/6+2*n)

x = 5/12+5n or x = 25/12+5n

these equations form the set of all solutions. The n is any integer.

--------

The two smallest positive solutions occur when n = 0, so,

x = 5/12+5n or x = 25/12+5n

x = 5/12+5*0 or x = 25/12+5*0

x = 5/12 or x = 25/12

--------

Plugging either x value into the expression 12*sin(2pi/5*x)+10 should yield 16, which would confirm the two answers.

In a survey of 2,200 people who owned a certain type of car, 1,210 said they would buy that type of car again. What percent of

katrin [286]

Answer:

55%

If 1,210 people would buy that type of car again, they were satisfied with it.

The fraction of people who were satisfied would be $\frac{1210}{2200}$ .

To find a percentage, we need to divide the top of the fraction by the bottom, then multiply by 100.

1210/2200 is equal to 0.55. This is the decimal form of the fraction, but we need the percentage.

0.55 x 100 is equal to 55.

The answer is 55%
