If x represents the width of a rectangle and length is four less than three times the width, which of the following expressions represents the length of the rectangle in terms of x?

A ratio is of the form a : b but can also be converted to a fraction of the form a/b, where b is not equal to zero. Besides, to in ration means per in fraction form.

In the class of 40 students, 22 are girls and 18 are boys. Thus, the ratio of girls to boys becomes:

The above fraction can be reduced further since 2 is a common factor in both 22 and 18. Thus

In ratio form, girls: boys=11:9

Thus, the ratio of girls to boys in a class of 40 students is 11 to 9.

In order for the teacher to better visualize the test performance for his class, he needs to present the mark distribution in chart form. A better chart visualizer is the histogram, which will show the frequency of marks against range of test scores. A bar graph will not be used because the rectangles need to touch one another.

In a bar graph, the rectangles do not touch each other. Therefore, it will not be a good chart visualizer.

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.

To convert 514 to a percentage:

Step 1: Convert the mixed number to a decimal

514=5+14=5+0.25=5.255

Step 2: Convert to a percentage

Multiply by 100:

5.25×100=525%

The truck carries a whole cargo which equals 1. If we let the weight of the cargo to be p, then we set up a proportion equation with weight as numerator and fraction of cargo as denominator.

Solve for value of p by cross products

Multiply both sides by 3/2 a reciprocal of 2/3

The truck carries a cargo weighing 795 lb.

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.

The selling price of the sweater is marked price less the mark off value.

Mark off value=mark off rate*original price

Mark of value=30% of $95

Mark of value=0.30*$95=$28.50

Now, find the selling price of the sweater

Selling price= marked price-mark off value

Thus, the sweater will be sold for 66.50 after applying a mark off of 30%. The selling price is about $67.

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.

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.

The first five months of the year are January, February, March, April, and May. We use to graph to find the amount of rainfall in each month as follows:

In the month of January, rainfall was between o and 1, which is halfway. Therefore, rainfall in January is 0.5 inches

On February, rainfall was 1 inch and on March the rainfall was 2 inches.

On April, the rainfall amount was 4 inches while on month of May, the rainfall was about 3.5 inches. Therefore, total rainfall in the first 5 months was:

Total rainfall=0.5 inches+1 inches+ 2 inches+4 inches + 3.5 inches =11 inches
