Answer: 35 additional teachers are needed
-------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------
Explanation:
We have 2470 students and the ratio of students to teachers is 26:1. This means that for every teacher, there are 26 students. Put another way, we can set up this ratio
2470/x = 26/1
where x is the number of teachers. Cross multiply and solve for x
2470/x = 26/1
2470*1 = 26*x
2470 = 26x
26x = 2470
26x/26 = 2470/26
x = 95
So we have 95 teachers currently
-------------
Let y be the new number of teachers needed to bring the ratio down to 19:1
Using a similar idea as done above, we would have this ratio
2470/y = 19/1
Let's solve for y
2470/y = 19/1
2470*1 = 19*y
2470 = 19y
19y = 2470
19y/19 = 2470/19
y = 130
So we'll need 130 teachers to have the ratio be 19:1
The difference of the values is y - x = 130 - 95 = 35, which is the final answer. This is the additional amount of teachers needed.
30 + 2 = 32
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First write the question as an equation
x+y = -5
2x+y = -2
From the given equations, we can create a third one.
x+y+2x+y = -7 or 3x+2y = -7
Use trial and error method for the possible values x and y
We know that at least one of these two have to be negative.
x can be 1, in which case y has to be 5.
Check this for
x+y ≠ -5
x can be -1
Try another one where x = -1 and y has to equal -2
Check this
X
x+y = -5
but,
2x+y ≠ -2
Another one,
Hypotenuse, you can find it by using the <span>Pythagorean theorem</span>
38 because 80% of 20 is 18 and then add the 2
