Answer:
12,662 books
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of books = 75,972
No. of science books = ⅓ of 75,972 = ⅓*75,972 = 25,324 books.
No. of business books = 75% of the remaining books = 75% of (75,972 - 25,324)
= 
No. of business books = 37,986
No. of maths books in the math section = 75,972 - (25,324 + 37,986)
= 75,972 - 63,310
= 12,662 books
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
G. y=2x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the slope from 2x-y=-3
-y=-2x-3
y=2x+3, which means that the slope is 2
Since it is parallel, the given equation and the line we are finding has the same slope.
let y=mx+b, where m=2, y=5, x=5
5=2(5)+b
5=10+b
-5=b
Thus, y=2x-5
This is a ratio problem; the ratio of the length to width is constant (and therefore equal):
4 /6 = 15 / x
Now, with a ratio, we may do any allowable algebra operation: cross-multiply, invert both sides, multiply or divide both sides by the same amount, etc.
Let's cross-multiply:
4x = (15)(6)
x = 90/4
x = 22.5 in.
