A closet containing 120 pieces of clothing is made of sweaters, jeans, and skirts. The ratio of sweaters to jeans is 8:3, and the ratio of jeans to skirts is 3:4. If 4 of the pairs of jeans were taken out of the closet and were replaced by 4 skirts, what will be the new ratio of jeans to skirts?
A. 3:4
B. 4:5
C. 5:9
D. 1:11

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C, 5:9

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Context for variables

sw: number of sweaters

j: number of jeans  

sk: number of skirts

The following three equations are established from the question:

sw + j + sk = 120

sw/j = 8/3

j/sk = 3/4 or sk/j = 4/3

Dividing the first equation by j, we get:

sw/j + j/j + sk/j = 120/j

8/3 + 1 + 4/3 = 120/j

5 = 120/j

j = 120/5 = 24

sw = 24*8/3 = 64

sk = 24*4/3 = 32

After the replacement the new number of jeans and skirts are:

j' = 24 - 4 = 20

sk' =  32 + 4 = 36

the new ratio of jeans to skirts is:

j'/sk' = 20/36 = 5/9

area =l×b=

(10m×14m)= 140m

Answer:

Perimeter = 33.4248cm

Area = 29.42478cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = half circle + rectangle length + radius + 90degree section + rectangle length + radius

radius of the circles = (14 - 10)/2 = 2

Perimeter = 2π + 10 + 2 + π + 10 + 2

Perimeter = 3π + 24 = 33.4248cm

Area = half circle + rectangle + quarter circle

Area = π(2)²/2 + 10×2 + π(2)²/4

Area = 29.42478cm²

Ray

Step-by-step explanation:

A ray is a line that has one definite start point and then continues in one direction forever. Rays are commonly combined to create angles. In an angle, each ray begins at the vertex, the definite starting point, and then goes straight in one direction. In this question, the image would be called ray LM.

this is a ray, L to M makes it a ray because it always has to start at the endpoint and it continuously goes in the direction of the arrow:)

Solve for n.

–2(n + 2) + 6 = 8

n =

Answers

Answer:

n = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

n = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation –2(n + 2) + 6 = 8. First, we simplify it:

–2(n + 2) + 6 = 8

–2(n + 2) = -2n + (-4) = -2n - 4

So now we have:

-2n - 4 + 6 = 8

We can subtract 6 from both sides of the equation to get:

-2n - 4 = 2

We can also add 4 to both sides to get:

-2n = 6

Divide both sides by 2 to get:

-n = 3

Multiply both sides by -1 to get:

n = -3

The sum of all the data values divided by the number of data values is 7.

Answers

Answer:

The sum of all the data values divided by the number of data values is 7.

Explaination:

The mean (average) of a data set is found by adding all numbers in the data set and then dividing by the number of values in the set.

Answer:

The last one

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the mean is 7, what we are trying to identify is which situation correctly describes how to find the mean.

Define

Mean = Sum of values divided by number of data values

Reasoning

For "The middle value of the ordered data set is 7."

The middle value is known as the median not mean therefore this answer is not correct.

For "The value that occurs most often in the set is 7."

The number that occurs the most is known as the mode not the mean therefore this is not the correct answer

For " The difference between the smallest value and the largest value is 7.

"

The difference between the smallest and largest number is known as the range therefore this answer is not correct.

We're left with "The sum of all the data values divided by the number of data values is 7." which does indeed correctly describe how to find the mean.
