The ratio is 2 : 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The number of sports store = 4
The number of clothing store = 9
The number of jewellery stores = 5
To Find :
The ratio of number of sports stores to the total number of stores
Solution:
The ratio of number of sports stores to the total number of stores
= 
The total number of stores = number of sports store + number of clothing store + number of jewellery store
The total number of stores = 4 + 9 + 5
The total number of stores = 18
Now the ratio is
= 
or 4 : 8
The ratio after reduction is
=
or 2 : 9 or 2 to 9
You want to try and get rid of one of the variables ( x or y) so you would multiply the second equation by 2 which would make the x variable -2x which then when added to the first equation would eliminate the x variable.
Answer: c. Multiply the second equation by 2.
Answer:
-6m+3-n
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 x 2m = - 6m
-3 x - 1=3
Answer:
x = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
1. add 31 on both sides (you wanna get the "x" by itself)
ex: 2x - 31 = 7
+31 +31
2. the 31s cancel each other out so now you add 31 + 7
2x = 7
+31
___________
38
3. divide 2 on both sides so the 2s cancel each other out and only the x is left
ex: 2x / 2 = x 38 ( the 38 stands alone)
4. now divide 38/2 and you have your answer
X= 19
The answer is D, 8$. One easy way to do it is to take 10% of 40, which is 4, and double it.
