Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set the ratio as
7x : 9x
If you add all the states that border an ocean and do not, you will get 48 states (because Alaska and Hawaii are not part of the continental US, as they do not touch the "main" part of the country)
So, we can write this equation.
7x + 9x = 48
Simplify.
16x = 48
Divide both sides by 16.
x = 4
Now, find how many states border an ocean. In our ratio, the number of states that border an ocean was 7x. Substitute x = 4 into 7x
7 * x = 7 * 4 = 28
The number of states that border an ocean is 28.
I hope this helps! Feel free to ask any questions!
Yes you are correct
60 * 360 / 40 = 540
Answer:
144 169 225
Step-by-step explanation:
12² = 144
13² = 169
15² = 225
There are two coefficients, 11 for r and 7 for s
92
given 2a² + 5b²
substitute given values for a and b into the expression
2(- 6)² + 5(2)² = (2 × 36 ) + (5 × 4) = 72 + 20 = 92
