In a school, 2/3 of students study a language. Of those who study a language, 2/5 study French. Find the Ratio of student who study French to students who do not study French. Give your answer in the simplest form.Must be in Ratio __ : __

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The ratio of students who study French to students who don't is 4 : 11

Ratio shows the relationship that exists between two or more numbers. It displays the number of times a value is contained in another value

The fraction of students that study a language = 2/3

fraction of students that study French = (2)/(3) × (2)/(5) = (4)/(15)

Fraction of students that do not study French = 1 - (4)/(15) = (11)/(15)

The ratio ;(4)/(15) : (11)/(15)

(4)/(15) ÷ (11)/(15)

(4)/(15) × (15)/(11)

= 4 : 11

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer: 4:11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Fraction of students study a language =(2)/(3)

Let x be the number of students in the school.

Then , No. of students study a language =(2)/(3)x

Fraction of students who study a language study French  =(2)/(5)

No. of of students who study a language study French  =(2)/(5)x

No. of students study French =(2)/(5)*(2x)/(3)=(4x)/(15)

Then, the number of students do not study French = x-(4x)/(15)=(15x-4x)/(15)=(11x)/(15)

Now, the ratio of student who study French to students who do not study French:-

((4x)/(15))/((11x)/(15))=(4)/(11)=4:11

Hence, the required answer =  4:11

What is the solution of the system of linear equations? y=3/2 x+1 and y=3/4 x-2

Answers

Answer:

(-4,-5)

y= -5

x= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

y=3/2x+1

y=3/4x-2

solve using the comparison method

3/2x+1=3/4x-2

subtract 3/2 from both sides

-3/4x+1=-2

subtract 1 from both sides

3/4x=-3

divide both sides by 3/4

x= -4

substitute the value of x into an equation

y=3/2(-4)+1

distribute

y= -6+1

add, but 6 is negative so subtract

y= -5

V=LWH
SA=2(LW+LH+WH)
V=240
first check that they are 240 volume
multiply numbers they should equal 240

the first one (A) can be eliminated since the dimentions are the same and therefor the surface areas are the same

2nd one check so far

3rd one (C) 6*4*15=360 which is wrong so eliminate this one

4th (d) 12*6*5=360 which is not 240 so eliminate

Abc bookstore sells new books, n, for $12, used books, u, for $8, and magazines, m, for $5 each. The store earned $340 revenue last month. The store sold 5 more used books than new books, and twice as many magazines as new books. Using substitution method, how many magazines, new books, and old books did ABC bookstore sell?

Answers

Answer:

The number of new books sold  =  10

The number of used books sold (u)   = 15

The number of magazines  sold(m) =   20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the number of new books  = n

So, the number of used books sold  (u)  = New books sold + 5 =  n + 5

Also, the number of magazines sold (m)  = 2 x ( Number of new books sold)  

= 2 n

⇒  u = n + 5, m = 2 n

Here, the cost of each new book  n-  = $12

So, the cost of n new books = n  x ($12) = 12 n

the cost of each used book  u  = $8

So, the cost of u = (n+ 5)  used  books = n+5  x ($8) = 8 n + 40

the cost of each magazine  m  = $5

So, the cost of m = (2n )  magazines = 2n  x ($5) = 10 n

Also, total earnings = $340

⇒ 12 n + 8n +40 + 10 n = 340

or,  30 n =  300

or,n = 300/30 = 10

Hence the number of new books sold  = n = 10

The number of used books sold (u)  = n + 5  = 15

The number of magazines  sold  = m = 2 n = 20
