Five hundred sixth-grade students were surveyed. Of these students
that were surveyed...
• 375 had been to a baseball game
• 270 own either a cat or a dog
• 125 had traveled on an airplane
3) What is the ratio of total sixth-grade students to the number of students who either want a cat or a dog? (Write the ratio in THREE ways)

The ratio in three ways are 500 : 125 or 100 : 25 or 4 : 1

Solution:

Given that,

Five hundred sixth-grade students  were surveyed

Which means,

sixth-grade students = 500

125 had traveled on an airplane

What is the ratio of total sixth-grade students to the number of students who had  traveled on an airplane?

Therefore,

total sixth-grade students : students  traveled on airplane = 500 : 125

Ratio = 500 : 125

Reduce to lowest terms,

Divide both sides by 5

Ratio = 100 : 25

Further reduce to simplest terms,

Divide both sides by 25

Ratio = 4 : 1

Thus the ratio in three ways are 500 : 125 or 100 : 25 or 4 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
