Answer:
a=9
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this proportion, we have to get the variable, a, by itself.
First, cross multiply.
6/a=18/27
Multiply the denominator of the first fraction by the numerator of the second, and the numerator of the second by the denominator of the first.
a*18=6*27
18a=162
Now, 18 and a are being multiplied. In order to get a by itself, perform the opposite of what is being done. They are being multiplied, so the opposite would be division. Divide both sides by 18.
18a/18=162/18
a=162/18
a=9
So, the proportion, with 9 substituted in for a, will be:
6/9=18/27
Answer:
-83/20
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
30 are girls, and 20 are boys because every 3 out of five students are girls, and every 2 out of 5 students are boys.
Q55.
UTA+ATS=UTS
x+18+120=12x+17
x+138=12x+17
12x-x=138-17
11x=121
x=121/11
x=11
mUTA=x+18
put the value of x
11+18
mUTA=29
Q57.
AQP+RQA=RQP
9x+2+75=1+28x
9x+77=1+28x
28x-9x=77-1
19x=76
x=76/19
x=4
mRQP=1+28x
put the value of x
1+28(4)
1+112
mRQP=113
Answer:
12) 5.96 ; 13)
Step-by-step explanation:
12). x and 5 are legs, so
opposite leg/adjacent leg = tangent 40°
5/x= tan40°, 5= x*tan40°, x= 5/tan40° ≈ 5.96
13). 15 is opposite leg
24 is hypotenuse
opposite leg/hypotenuse = sin(x)
sin(x) = 15/24
x = arcsin(15/24) ≈ 38.68°
