Ms. Chang has 24 students in her class, and 8 of them are boys. What is the ratio of girls to boys
24-8= 16 So there are 16 girls and 8 boys the ratio would be 16:8
not in answers answers are A. 1 : 4 B. 2 : 1 C. 1 : 3 D. 2 : 3
I was hoping you'd catch the mistake :) You have to simplify. Both 16 and 8 have one common factor: 8 So divide 16 by 8 and 8 by 8 and you'll get your answer :)
2 : 1 is my final answer?
Yes :)
ok, can i ask more questions
nvm
Sure
ok
A ramp leads up to a building. The top of the ramp is 4 feet above the ground, and the bottom is 14 feet from the building, as shown. What is the length of the ramp? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot.
For this one you would use the pythagorean theorem, which is \[a ^{2} + b ^{2} = c ^{2} \] Now substitute the letters for number and you get \[14^{2} + 4^{2} =c^{2} \] Do you know how to solve for c or do you want me to explain?
i got it
What answer did you get?
14.6
Good :)
