Answer:
The inequality would be true
Step-by-step explanation:
4(c+2) < 4c + 10
Distribute the 4 on the left
4c + 8 < 4c + 10
Subtract 4c from both sides
8 < 10
8 < 10 is true
So you have a 50% chance to have a boy vs a girl (1/2). If you want 3 children, that would be 1/3*1/2= 1/6 or 16.67% chance
The Answer Would Be 64 because if you divide 8/4.5 its equal to 64/36.
Answer:
270
Step-by-step explanation:
Jones turns out 200 relays to Smith's 180. You set up that basic ratio and make a proportion out of it.
S/J = 180/200
Now you make your proportion
S/J = x/300
But the 2 ratios much remain the same.
180/200 = x / 300 Multiply both sides by 300
180*300/200 = x Multiply the numerator together.
54000/200 = x Do the division
270 = x
Smith will have turned out 270 relays.
A = first piece, b = second piece, c = third piece
a + b + c = 47
b = 3a
c = 5a + 2
a + (3a) + (5a + 2) = 47.....combine like terms
9a + 2 = 47
9a = 47 - 2
9a = 45
a = 45/9
a = 5 ft
b = 3a.....b = 3(5)....b = 15 ft
c = 5a + 2....c = 5(5) + 2.....c = 25 + 2....c = 27 ft
longest piece (c) = 27 ft
