Answer:
1 would be 10%, but a proportion is a ratio, as in this case 10/100 = 1/10= . 1, but 10% is not a ratio in of itself, but is a proportion of 100. % means OF one hundred. A proportion is a number TO another number.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
There are 4 boys for every 6 girls (4 : 6 ratio)
Steve = S , Tom = T
1) S+T = 7777
2) S= 1414 + 2T
put 2) in 1)
1414+2T + T = 7777
1414 +3T = 7777
3T = 6363
so T = 2121
then Steve sold 1414+2(2121) = 1414+4242=5656 tickets
while Tom sold 2121 tickets
The trick is to write appropriate equations and then solve the system of equations you've created.
"sum of two numbers is -5:" x + y = -5
"difference is -1:" x-y = -1
Add these two equations together. This will cause y to drop out, and you will be left with an equation in x alone:
2x = - 6, so x = -3. Subst. -3 for x in either equation, above, and find the corresponding y value.
Then write your solution as (-3, y ) (write in your value for y).
