In all cases, we will let x represent the number.
1) 54 tens = 540
90 - 540 = -450
x > -450
2) x < 36 and x > 24
24 < x < 36
3) 8 tens and 5 ones = 80 + 5 = 85
x > 85
4) x > 27
x < 33
And the value in the ones place is less than the value in the tens place, so
30 ≤ x ≤ 32
Answer: The incidence of skin cancer (melanoma) has been underestimated.
Step-by-step explanation: The frequency of melanoma is more than 20 times higher in whites than in black Americans. In general, the risk of melanoma in the course of life is approximately 2.6% (1 in 38) for whites, 0.1% (1 in 1.000) for black people and 0.58% (1 in 172) for Hispanics. the risk for each person can be affected by a different number of factors.
Answer:
3/7
Step-by-step explanation:
18/42=9/21=3/7 answer
1800 because the 18 cant fit in the tens
It is usual to represent ratios in their simplest form so that we are not operating with large numbers. Reducing ratios to their simplest form is directly linked to equivalent fractions.
For example: On a farm there are 4 Bulls and 200 Cows. Write this as a ratio in its simplest form.
Bulls <span>: </span>Cows
4 <span>: </span>200
If we halve the number of bulls then we must halve the number of cows so that the relationship between the bulls and cows stays constant. This gives us:
Bulls <span>: </span>Cows
2 <span>: </span>100
Halving again gives us
1 <span>: </span>50
So the ratio of Bulls to Cows equals 1 : 50. The ratio is now represented in its simplest form.
An example where we have 3 quantities.
On the farm there are 24 ducks, 36 geese and 48 hens.
Ratio of ducks <span>: </span>geese <span>: </span>hens
24 <span>: </span>36 <span>: </span>48
Dividing each quantity by 12 gives us
2 <span>: </span>3 : 4
So the ratio of ducks to geese to hens equals 2 : 3 : 4 which is the simplest form since we can find no further common factor.
