How many learners can enrol if there are 12 teachers and a ratio of teachers to learners is 30:1

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

360 learners

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to solve these types of problems is that you could set up a proportion

learners/teachers = learners/teachers

Let x = no. of learners to enrol

30/1 = x/12

12(30) = x

x = 360 learners

How to solve this question

VMariaS [17]

The variance method is as follows.

-Sum the squares of the values in data set, and then divide by the number of values in data set
- From that, subtract the square of the mean (add all values and divide by number of values in the data set)

Our variance is

 $\displaystyle\sigma^2 = \frac{2^2 + 5^2 + m^2}{3} - \left(\frac{2 + 5 + m}{3}\right)^2$

Since variance has to be 14, we set $\sigma^2 = 14$ and solve for m

$14= \frac{4 + 25 + m^2}{3} - \left(\frac{7 + m}{3}\right)^2\ \Rightarrow \\ \\
14 = \frac{29}{3} + \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{1}{9}(7+m)^2 \\ \\
14 = \frac{29}{3}+ \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{1}{9}(49 + 14m + m^2) \\ \\
14 = \frac{29}{3}+ \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{49}{9}- \frac{14}{9}m- \frac{1}{9}m^2 \\ \\
0 = \frac{-88}{9} -\frac{14}{9}m + \frac{2}{9}m^2
$

quadratic formula

$m = \displaystyle\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a} \\
m = \frac{-(-\frac{14}{9}) \pm \sqrt{\left(-\frac{14}{9}\right)^2 - 4(2/9)(-88/9)} }{2(2/9)} \\
m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{196}{81} + \frac{704}{81} } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\
m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{900}{81} } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\
m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{100}{9} } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\
m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \frac{10}{3} }{\frac{4}{9} } \\
m = 11, -4$

-4 doesnt' work as it is not a positive integer

m = 11

What are two contributions to math that Leonardo Fibonacci made

jekas [21]

Fibonacci is famous for his contributions to number theory.

In his book, Liber abaci he introduce the Hindu-Arabic place-valued decimal systems and the use of Arabic Numerals into Europe.He introduced the bar we use in fractions, previous to this, the numerator has quotations around it. The square root notation is also is Fibonacci method.
