The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

Since the number of charter schools is eight less than twice the number of alternative schools, then it’s:

<span>2x - 8 </span><span>
<span>and then
<span>2x - 8 = 36 </span>
<span>2x = 44 </span>
x = 22 </span></span>

So there are 22 Alternative Schools in the county. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.

There were 340,000 cattle placed on feed. Write an equivalent ratio that could be used to find how many of these cattle were bet

There were 340,000 cattle placed on feed

How many of the 340,000 cattle placed on feed were between 700 and 799 pounds?

Given the fraction of total cattle for 700 - 799 pounds is 2/5

Let x be the number of cattle between 700 - 799 pounds

We make a proportion using the fraction

\frac{2}{5} = \frac{x}{340,000}

Cross multiply it and solve for x

340000* 2 = 5x

680000 = 5x

Divide by 5 on both sides

So x= 136,000

There were 136,000 cattle between 700 and 799 pounds

Tasha has eight more fish than Oscar, who has twice as many fish as Cecilia. If altogether they have 148 fish, how many fish do
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

They each have 64

Step-by-step explanation:

let C = number of fish that Cecilia has --- then, O = 2C, where O = number of fish that Oscar has --- and T = O + 8 = 2C + 8, where T = number of fish that Tasha has --- then, C + O + T = C + 2C + (2C + 8) = 148 --- or, 5C + 8 = 148 --- or, 5C = 140 --- or, C = 140/5 = 28 --- and, O = 2C = 2(28) = 56 --- and, T = O + 8 = 56 + 8 = 64
