The ratio of girls to boys in the 6th grade is 6 to7. How many girls are there if there are 364 total students?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

168

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a proportion problem, but with a small trick.

Boys/Girls = 7/6

Here is the trick: add 1 to each side of the equation

(boys/girls) + 1 = (7/6) + 1

(boys + girls)/girls = 13/6

364/girls = 13/6 => 13*(girls) = 6*364 = 2184 => girls = 168

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]168[/tex] girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio of girls to boys is [tex]6:7[/tex], we can let the number of girls be [tex]6x[/tex] and the number of boys be [tex]7x[/tex]. We are given that there are a total of [tex]364[/tex] students, so we can write the following equation to solve for [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]6x+7x=364[/tex]

Solving for [tex]x[/tex], we get:

[tex]6x+7x=364[/tex]

[tex]13x=364[/tex] (Simplify LHS)

[tex]\frac{13x}{13} =\frac{364}{13}[/tex] (Divide both sides of the equation by [tex]13[/tex] to get rid of [tex]x[/tex]'s coefficient)

[tex]x=28[/tex] (Simplify)

Therefore, there are [tex]6x=6*28=168[/tex] girls in the 6th Grade. Hope this helps!

Rebecca carries a balance on her credit card each month. Today is the first day of the new, 28-day billing cycle. The current balance is x and the APR is 24%. Rebecca is buying a friend an expensive gift that costs $1,400 that she plans to put on her credit card. This will be her only purchase this month, and she will be making this purchase on the last day of the month. If her finance charge will be $51, write and solve an equation to determine her current balance on her credit card.

Answers

Answer:

Average date*Interest=Finance charge

Previous debt*2%´+1400*2%=51

Previous debt=1150

Step-by-step explanation:

X=Previus Debt

Debt= Previus debt + 1400

Finance Charge 51.

Debt=1400+1150= 2550

Average debt= Previus debt + 1400

Average date*Interest=Finance charge

Previous debt*2%´+1400*2%=51

Previous debt=1150

PLEASE HELP! A chemist is estimating the volume of a solution in a test tube. The actual volume of the solution is 33.4 ml. The chemist's estimate is 35 ml.
Find the absolute error and the percent error of the chemist's estimate. If necessary, round your answers to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Absolute error is actual- estimate=33.4-35=-1.6 that in percent can be found using a rule of three, we say that 33.4 is the 100% and we find the % for -1.6

33.4ml -------- 100%

-1.8ml-----------x

x=(-1.8)(100)/33.4

x=-5.4

the percentage error is -5.4%

Please find the length x.

Answers

It should be 6...

Notice how the triangles are the exact same shape.

The side 2.5 is 1 less than 3.5

Therefore x should be 1 less than 7 which is 6

The length of the triangle ABC is given by the equation x = 5

What are similar triangles?

If two triangles' corresponding angles are congruent and their corresponding sides are proportional, they are said to be similar triangles. In other words, similar triangles have the same shape but may or may not be the same size. The triangles are congruent if their corresponding sides are also of identical length.

Corresponding sides of similar triangles are in the same ratio. The ratio of area of similar triangles is the same as the ratio of the square of any pair of their corresponding sides

Given data ,

Let the first triangle be represented as ABC

Let the second triangle be represented as CDE

The measure of side AB = 2.5

The measure of side AC = x

The measure of side CE = 7

The measure of side ED = 3.5

Now , the two triangles are similar

So , corresponding sides of similar triangles are in the same ratio

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

AC / AB = CE / ED

On simplifying the equation , we get

x / 2.5 = 7 / 3.5

Multiply by 2.5 on both sides of the equation , we get

x = ( 2.5 x 7 ) / 3.5

x = 2.5 x 2

x = 5

Therefore , the value of x is 5

Hence , the measure of side x = 5

Write an equation to represent the number of pages Jesse has read. Using x, the number of days Amir has been reading, write an expression to represent the number of days Jesse has been reading. Remember that Jesse started reading one day before Amir. Use this expression to write an equation for the number of pages Jesse has read. Let y represent the number of pages read.

Answers

Question:

Jesse and Amir were assigned the same book to read. Jesse started reading on Saturday, and he is reading 30 pages a day. Amir didn't start until Sunday, but he is reading 35 pages a day.

How many days will it take Amir to catch up to Jesse, and how many pages will they each have read?

Write an equation to represent the number of pages Amir has read. Use x to represent the number of days Amir has been reading and y to represent the number of pages he has read.

Answer:

It will take 6 days

Step-by-step explanation:

For Jesse:

[tex]Rate = 30\ pages/day[/tex]

This implies that Jesse will cover 30y in y days

For Amir:

[tex]Rate = 35\ pages/day[/tex]

This implies that Amir will cover 35x in x days

Because Amir starts a day later,

[tex]y = x + 1[/tex]

So, we have the following equations:

[tex]Jesse = 30y[/tex]

[tex]Amir= 35x[/tex]

[tex]y = x + 1[/tex]

To get the number of days when they read the same number of pages, we have:

[tex]Jesse = Amir[/tex]

Substitute values for Jesse and Amir

[tex]30y = 35x[/tex]

Substitute x + 1 for y

[tex]30(x+1) = 35x[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]30x+30 = 35x[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]30 = 35x-30x[/tex]

[tex]30 = 5x[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]\frac{30}{5} = \frac{5x}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{30}{5} = x[/tex]

[tex]6 = x[/tex]

[tex]x = 6[/tex]

Find x

The figure in the attachment is a quadrilateral and the angles in a quadrilateral add up to 360.

So, we have:

90 + 6x + 5+ 10x - 40 + 4x + 5 = 360

Collect like terms

6x + 10x + 4x = 360 - 90 - 5 + 40 - 5

20x = 300

Divide both sides by 20

x = 15

Hence, the value of x is 15

To find the next number in the sequence, you have to subtract 2 from the last number.Because it started on 27 (which is an odd number) and we're subtracting 2 each time, every number in the sequence will be odd. And because -351 is an odd number, it will be in the sequence.

Haley worked 287 hours during the summer and earned $16 for each hour she worked.

Which is the closest estimate for the total amount she earned?

$4,500

$5,000

$5,500

$6,000

Answers

Answer: The closest estimate for the total amount she earned = $4,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total hours worked = 287 hours

Earning for each hour = $16

Total earning = (Total hours worked ) x (Earning for each hour)

= $ (287 x 16)

= $ 4592 ≈ $4500

The closest estimate for the total amount she earned = $4500

A TV has an original price of $599. Enter the new price after the given percent of change.

20% increase

The percent decrease is ? %

Answers

Answer:

The new price = $718. 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Original Price =  $599

Given that the increase is 20%.

i.e.

Thus,

The amount of 20% Percentage increase = 20/100 × 599

                                                                             = 0.2 × 599

                                                                              = $119.8

Therefore,

New price = Original price + 20% increase amount

                 = 599 + 119.8

                  = $718. 8

Therefore, the new price = $718. 8
