Answer:
- The men to women ratio is 3 : 4
- The ratio between women to total number of people is 4 : 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Men to women ratio = 21 : 28 or 3 : 4
The men to women ratio is 3 : 4
Total people = 21 + 28 = 49 people
The ratio of women to total number of people is
28 : 49 or 4 : 7
The ratio between women to total number of people is 4 : 7
Answer:
x = the wight of the large box
y = the weight of the small box
A delivery of 3 large boxes and 2 small boxes has a total weight of 73 kilograms.
3x + 2y = 73
A delivery of 8 large boxes and 4 small boxes has a total weight of 177 kilograms.
8x + 4y = 177
by solving the system of equations
3x + 2y = 73
8x + 4y = 177
we find
x = 15.5 kg
y = 13.25 kg
the large box weights 15.5 kg.
the small box weights 13.25 kg.
Ok so this is conic sectuion
first group x's with x's and y's with y's
then complete the squra with x's and y's
2x^2-8x+2y^2+10y+2=0
2(x^2-4x)+2(y^2+5y)+2=0
take 1/2 of linear coeficient and square
-4/2=-2, (-2)^2=4
5/2=2.5, 2.5^2=6.25
add that and negative inside
2(x^2-4x+4-4)+2(y^2+5y+6.25-6.25)+2=0
factor perfect squares
2((x-2)^2-4)+2((y+2.5)^2-6.25)+2=0
distribute
2(x-2)^2-8+2(y+2.5)^2-12.5+2=0
2(x-2)^2+2(y+2.5)^2-18.5=0
add 18.5 both sides
2(x-2)^2+2(y+2.5)^2=18.5
divide both sides by 2
(x-2)^2+(y+2.5)^2=9.25
that is a circle center (2,-2.5) with radius √9.25
The cost of 1 vanilla ice cream and 1 strawberry ice cream should total to $31. Since you only bought one of each flavor, you simply have to add their unit prices.
Cost for 1 carton of strawberry ice cream + Cost for 1 carton of vanilla ice cream = Total Cost
Total Cost = s + v --> this is the general equation
Since s = 1.5 + v, the modified equation would be
Total Cost = 1.5 + v + v
Total Cost = 1.5 + 2v
