This is a ratio problem. First, we need to add the number of students polled.
7 + 4 + 3 + 6 = 20
Next, look at how many out of 20 students selected Science.
3 out of 20.
Say it this way:
3 is to 20 as ? is to 400.
Express it this way:
3/20 = x/400
Cross multiply to eliminate the denominators.
3 x 400 = 20 x Now solve for x.
1200 = 20 x
x = 60
Check it!
Does 60/400 reduce to 3/20? Yes!
60 students are predicted to select science out of 400
What you want to do is take one of the 2 equations and isolate one variable. you will then use the value that you find for the variable and plug it back into the other equation. here is how:
This would be easiest to do with the second equation in the set since the x is not being multiplied by anything. So lets isolate the x in the second equation.
add 0.9y to both sides and you get:
x=4.5+0.9y
we now know what x is equal to in terms of y. so lets replace the x in the first equation with the new value. You get:
1.5(4.5+0.9y)-1.9y=-29
Now just solve for y:
6.75+1.35y-1.9y=-29
1.35y-1.9y=-35.75
-0.55y=-35.75
y=65
so now you know that y=65 so plug 65 in as y in the second equation to find x
x-0.9*65=4.5
Now simply solve for x
x-(-58.5)=4.5
x+58.5=4.5
x=-54
Hope this helped! :)
14 people chose the tiger and this equals 100-72 = 28%
So the percentage who shose the eag;e and the polar bear = 17/14 * 28 = 34%
So 100 - 28 - 34 = 38% chose the Viking This equals 38 * 0.5 =19 students.<---- Answer
Total number of students = 100 * 0.5 = 50. answer
Answer:
The answer is (0, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Ive also had this question and viewed iver it and said it was right this was some time ago but im glad to help :)
The answer is D.
We know that a rectangle has two widths that are equal and two lengths that are equal. One width is 22, so the other one is also 22.
If you wanted to find the lengths, you would add both widths together (same as multiplying a width by two) and add that to the two lengths equaled to the perimeter.
So, 22 * 2 + 2x = perimeter of rectangle. We added all four sides together.
We know that the perimeter is at least 165, so 22 * 2 + 2x = 165. Here's the twist. They want the most minimum possible length. So, what answer choice gives you 165 or less for the most minimum or smallest length while still getting to 165?
That is D.
22 * 2 + 2x < = 165.
Hope this helped!
