A class of 40 students has 18 boys and 22 girls. What is ratio of girls to boys in the class?

Here we convert between feet and yards. We know 1 yard =3 feet. Then, 27 feet to yards will be:

Thus, 9 yards is equal to 27 ft.

To form an equation from the word problem, first break the given statement into smaller statements.

First, we are given the width of the rectangle as x. We are told, the length is three times width. Mathematically, this means

Length=3*width=3*x=3x

Again, the length is 4 less than 3 times width of the rectangle. Thus, the length of rectangle in terms of width becomes:

Length =3x-4

This is the required equation.

In this problem, we need to find the amount of gratuity the couple will leave. The gratuity is 16% of the total bill. Before solving the problem, the following are terms and their meaning in percent problems:

• Is means equals
• Of means multiply
• What means unknown (variable)

If we let x be the amount of gratuity, then translating the given problem into a mathematical equation becomes:

Now we evaluate the above equation noting that of means multiply.

So, the value of x=9.376 and to the nearest cent, x=9.38

There, a couple will leave a gratuity of $9.38.

Before finding the area of the pizza, we need to find the radius of the pizza.

Find radius of the pizza in terms of diameter

Next, find area of the pizza using the radius of 6 inches

Substituting r=6 in the equation of the area of a circle

Thus, the pizza has an area of 36 π in2.

From the given data, we can draw the following triangle by letting the unknown length to be p.

We apply the Pythagoras theorem, the value of p:

The unknown length of the triangle is about 21.4 feet.

to find the average time the athlete runs in 1 mile; we find total distance and total time the athlete takes in running.

Total distance run by athlete=7+3=10 miles

Total time=45+15 =60 minutes

The athlete runs 10 miles in 60 minutes. For the athlete to cover 1 mile, he will run for a time less than 60 minutes. Thus, in 1 mile, the athlete takes:

So, in 6 minutes, the athlete covers 1 mile.

The median of a data set is found in two ways:

For an odd data set, the median fall in the (N+1)/2 th position.

For an even data set, the median is the average of the element in the (N/2)th and (N+1)/2 th positions.

To find the median of the given data set, we need to arrange the elements from the smallest to the largest as follows:

12, 12, 16, 18, 19, 22, 23, 24, 26, 35, 35

There are 11 elements in the data set. 11 is an odd number and the median fall in the (N+1)/2 th position.

Median =(11+1)/2=12/2=6 th position.

From the organized data, the element in the 6th position is 22, which is the required median for the data set.

We need to find the amount Lana left after spending and investing another.

Lana spends=70% of $90=70/100 * 90 = $63

Amount left after spending=$(90-63) = $27

Lana is left with $27, which she will invest and earns a profit of 60%.

Profit earned=60% of $27 = 60/100 * 27 = $16.20

Therefore, Lana will have $27 + $16.20 = $43.20

The initial step is to convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

5.2 becomes 52/10

5.15 becomes 515/100

Next, find the least common denominator of 3, 10, and 100, which is 300. We use this value and multiply each fraction.

7/3*300=700

52/10*300=1560

13/3*300=1300

515/100*300=1545

From the above, 1560 is the greatest value which corresponds to 52/10. Thus, 5.2 is the greatest value of all the choices given.

In a bell-shaped curve, the data distribution is symmetric around a single peak. The centering of data around a single peak means the mean, mode and median of the test are all equal to each other.
