Answer: 460 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, let the total number of students that attend I.S. 59 be represented by x.
Since we've been given the information that 230 signed up for the school picnic which was 50% of all students in the school. Then, the students in the school will be:
= 50% of x = 230
0.5 × x = 230
0.5x = 230
x = 230/0.5
x = 460
Therefore, 460 students attend the school.
A linear pair is a pair of angles that form a line. When added, they will equal 180.
< EFG + < GFH = 180
5n + 20 + 3n + 16 = 180
8n + 36 = 180
8n = 180 - 36
8n = 144
n = 144/8
n = 18
< EFG = 5n + 20.....5(18) + 20 = 110 <==
< GFH = 3n + 16.....3(18) + 16 = 70 <==
In order to solve a proportion you need to cross multiply, so you would do:
4x20 and 9xX and you would get...
9x=80
then divide by nine to get
x=8.8888888889
which is technically 8.9
I’m not sure i understand your question, could you send a picture of the question ??? i want to help you out ☝
