Find the value of the variable and DF if D is between C and F if CD 4y -9, DF 2y-7, and CF 14.

1 answer:

4 0

CF = CD + DF (since D is simply a point on the line, and C to that point added onto F to that point is CF), so 4y-9+2y-7=14. Adding it up, we get 6y-16=14 and adding by 16 we get 30=6y. Dividing both sides by 6, we get y=5. Plugging that into DF, we get 10-7=DF=3

How many hours and minutes are there between 2:45 and 3:50?

Jlenok [28]

1 hour and 5 min. from 2:45 until 3:00 is 15 min. then from 3:00 until 3:50 is an additional 50 min. ad 15 and 50, and you get 65. every 60 min makes one hour, so that leaves you with one hour and five min.

Answer: 1,045 passengers

Step-by-step explanation:

This question involves multiple steps. Let's first try to figure the number of children on the cruise.

The ratio of girls to the total number of children was 2:5. There are 198 boys.

This information tells me that for every 5 children, there's 2 girls and 3 boys.

Based off of this information, we can divide the total number of boys by 3 in order to find the number of children.

198÷3=66

Let's multiply 66 by 5 since that's the number of groupings based off the ratio.

66×5=330

Let's check the number of children. Since the ratio of girls to total children is 2:5 and we already confirmed there's 198 boys, there should be 132 girls. We can turn this ratio into a fraction where 2/5 of the children are girls. we can confirm this by multiply 330 by 2/5 (0.4) and getting 132.

There are 330 children on the cruise.

The ratio of the number of adults to the number of children was 13:6.

For every 6 children, there were 13 adults. Let's divide the number of children by 6 in order to find the number of groupings.

330÷6=55

Let's now multiply the groupings by 13 to find the number of adults.

55×13=715

So there should be 715 adults and 330 children on the cruise.

715+330=1,045
