Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Given that

There are total number of students i.e. 48

The ratio at present is 4:1

Now the computer needed to make the ratio be 3:1

So let us assume the number of students be 4x

And, the number of computers be x

So the 4x = 48

x = 12

So the computer be 12

Now the new ratio is 3:1

Students be 3x

And, computers be x

So

3x = 48

x = 16

Now the more computer needed is

= 16 - 12

= 4

hence, this is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options

IrinaK [193]

First, we draw our line.

 

|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

a                                                                                                            e

 

 

Next, break up this line into segments using the information.

 

|----------------------|----------------------|--------------------|------------------|

a                            b                            c                         d                      e

 

 

The entire line is 29.

 

ab + bc + cd + de = ae

ab + bc + cd + de = 29

 

You also know that

 

bd = bc + cd

 

 

Due to midpoint theorem,

 

ab = bc

cd = de

 

 

Then,

 

2ab + 2cd = 29

 

 

The equations we will use are

 

bd = bc + cd                       eq1

2bc + 2cd = 29                   eq2

 

 

Dividing both sides of the equation in eq2 yields

 

bc + cd = 14.5

 

bd = bc + cd

bd = 14.5

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Belinda's score is 32 strokes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the score of John be "x" and Belinda be "y".

It is given that, in the game of golf, John's score was 10 less than two times Belinda's score.

Also, John's score is 54 strokes.

The above equation can be written as ;

x = 2(y) -10

Here, x = 54,

54 = 2(y) -10

64 = 2(y)

y = 32

Thus, Belinda's score is 32 strokes.
