Answer:

3000 students

Step-by-step explanation:

If 48% of the students are female, and there are 1440 female students, we can set up a percentage proportion, assuming x is the total amount of students.

\frac{1440}{x} = \frac{48}{100}

We can use the cross products property to find the value of x.

1440\cdot100=144000\\\\144000\div48=3000

Hope this helped!

The angle Johnny holds his pen on paper creates a linear pair. The measure of one angle is 13x+7. The measure of the second angl
lisov135 [29]

we know that

Angles in a linear pair are supplementary angles

So

Let

A-------> the first angle

B------> the second angle

A+B=180\\ ----> equation 1

A=13x+7\\ B=2A-1=B=26x+13

Substitute the values of A and B in the equation 1

13x+7+26x+13=180\\ 39x=180-20\\ x=\frac{160}{39}

\frac{160}{39}=4.10\ degrees

therefore

the answer is

the value of x is 4.10\ degrees

There are 450 seats in the lower level of a concert hall with b balcony seats in the upper level. So far, 170 tickets have been
slamgirl [31]

There are 400 balcony seats in the concert hall.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

Step 1 :

  • The number of lower seats = 450 seats

Total seats = Lower seats + balcony seats

Step 2 :

  • Tickets sold = 170 tickets
  • Total tickets = x

Tickets sold = 1/5 of total tickets.

⇒ 170 = (1/5)x

⇒ x = 5\times170

⇒ x = 850 tickets

∴ Total seats in the concert hall is 850.

Step 3 :

Total seats = 450 + balcony seats

850 - 450 = balcony seats

∴ balcony seats = 400
