There are a total of 100 balloons. If the ratio of yellow balloons to blue balloons is 8 to 12, how many of them are yellow

Answers

If you have 8 yellow balloons for every 12 blue balloons, then if you have 20 balloons in total, 8 out of 20 of those balloons will be yellow. Then you can set up this ratio:

(8yellow)/(20total) = (Xyellow)/(100total)

Then, you can use either cross multiplication or multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to help solve for x. Personally, I prefer cross multiplication, so that's what I'll show you here:

(8yellow)/(20total) = (Xyellow)/(100total) \n 8yellow*100total=20total*Xyellow

Finally, solve for x:

8yellow*100total=20total*Xyellow \n 8*100=20*x \n 800=20x \n 800/20=20x/20 \n x=40yellow

If you had 100 balloons, you will have 40 yellow balloons.

Hope this helps!!

What is the measurement of N?
A) 138°
B) 139°
C) 140°
D) 141°

Answers

We have an 180 degree line, so lets solve. 

180 - 39 = 141
 n = 141 degrees

Answer:  N = 141
° 


This angle is called, a straight angle. This angle measures 180°. To find the answer to this we will do the following:-

180° - 39° = N
180° - 39° = 141
Angle N = 141.

CHECK OUR WORK:-

141 + 39 = 180
We were RIGHT!!!

So, the measurement of N is D)141°.
