1) If there are 54 people in a class and the ratio of girls to total people is 2:5, how many

1 answer:

3 0

From the ratio you can deduce 2:5 girls and 3:5 boys. Divide 54 by 5 and you get 10.8. 10.8*2 = 21.6 and 10.8*2= 32.4 which adds to the total 54. There cannot be a fraction of a person, you need to round the decimals. There are 22 girls and 32 boys.

Answer: $20\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solve the exercise is to make the conversion from meters to centimeters.

Since $1\ m=100\ cm$ , then the dimensions of the wood board in centimeters are:

$Lenght=100\ cm\\\\Width=60\ cm$

Now, you must find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF). The steps are:

- Descompose 100 and 60 into their prime factors:

$100=2*2*5*5=2^2*5^2\\60=2*2*3*5=2^2*3*5$

- Multiply the commons with the lowest exponents:

$GCF=2^2*5\\\\GCF=4*5\\\\GCF=20$

Therefore, the side lenght of each square must be:

$s=20\ cm$

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Slope of PQ is (v - z) / (w - x).

The slope of P'Q' =

(v + b) - (z + b)

--------------------- = (v - z) / (w - x)

(w + a - (x + a)

Both lines have a slope that is (v - z)/ (w - x).

So both lines are parallel.
