Well's College in New York was previously an all girls school. In 2005, the college began to allow boys to enroll. By 2012, the ratio of boys to girls was 3:7. If there were 200 more girls than boys, how many boys were enrolled that year?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 150 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boys be x

Since there were 200 more girls than boys, the number of girls will be: = x + 200

Since the ratio of boys to girls was 3:7, this can be solved further below:

3/7 = x/x+200

Cross multiply

(7 × x) = 3(x + 200)

7x = 3x + 600

7x - 3x = 600

4x = 600

x = 600/4

x = 150

The number of boys enrolled is 150

Number of Girls will be:

= X + 200

= 150 + 200

= 350

Check: Number of boys / Number of girls

= 150/350

= 3/7

= 3:7

Answers

Answer: 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the completed question.

Sugar and flour are mixed in the ratio 3:5 in a sweet recipe. In another recipe, 15 parts of flour are used. If these two ingredients in both recipes are in an equivalent ratio, how many parts of sugar should be used?

Ratio of sugar and flour = 3:5

Since 15 parts of flour are used, the parts of sugar that should be used will be:

= 15 ÷ 5/3

= 15 × 3/5

= 3 × 3

= 9

A triangle has one side that measures 5 units and another side that
measures 7 units. What are two possible lengths for the third side?
Explain why you chose the lengths you did.

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 sides of a triangle then the third side x is between the limits

difference of 2 sides < x < sum of 2 sides, that is

7 - 5 < x < 7 + 5 , then

2 < x < 12

Choose any 2 values between 2 and 12 as third side, so

third side could be 6 or 9 for example

- 6x+5
A. (x + 5)(-1)
B. (x-4)(x-2)
C. (x + 4)(x-2)
D. (x - 5)(x-1)
