Answer:
School A
Step-by-step explanation:
School A has a ratio of 18/225 = 2/25 staff to students
School B has a ratio of 23/322 = 2/28 = 1/14 staff to students
Assuming that a better ratio means more staff per students School A has a better ratio

Answer:
7k
____________________________________________________
Step-by-step explanation:
We are trying to combine like terms with the expression: -k - ( - 8k)
We are pretty much solving it.
Solve:
-k - ( - 8k)
The "- ( -" turns into a plus sign.
So it would look like:
-k - -8k or -k + 8k
Now, you would finish solving
-k + 8k = 7k

Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(-x - 1) + 4x – 1= 49
Distribute
5x +5 +4x -1 = 49
Combine like terms
9x +4 = 49
Subtract 4 from each side
9x+4-4 = 49-4
9x = 45
Divide by 9
9x/9 =45/9
x = 5
Answer:
The number that goes in place of the question mark is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve it!
3x² + 12x - 24 = 0
First we can factor 3 out of each term:
x² + 4x - 8 = 0
Now we'll add 12 to both sides to complete the square:
x² + 4x + 4 = 12
And finish it off:
(x + 2)² = 12
So the answer to the question is 2
Bonus:
We can also now solve this for x:
(x + 2)² = 12
x = √12 - 2
x = 2√3 - 2
x ≈ 2 × ±1.732 - 2
x ≈ 1.464, -5.464
