Kathleen must get 300 signatures to make sure she will have enough valid signatures for the crosswalk
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that Kathleen needs 240 valid signatures on a petition to get a crosswalk installed on her street
She knows that about 20% of the signatures will not be valid for a variety of reasons
Let "x" be the number of signatures
invalid signature = 20 % of x
valid signatures = 240
Then, according to question,
total number of signatures - invalid signatures = 240
x - 20 % of x = 240
Therefore, she must get 300 signatures so that she will have enough valid signatures for the crosswalk
30 were adults and 10 were children :) just add it up
1 feet is 12 inches so 40 feets is 480 inches
Real locomotive is 480/16=30 times wider then the model
And then a window on the real locomotive is 30 times wider then the model.
To answer this question, you need to makes the unit of the smartphone screen same. In this case, phone A is using decimal and phone B is using a fraction. You can use which was easier.
Let's try to use decimal. Then you need to convert phone B fraction width into decimal width. The calculation would be: 5cm + 1/3cm= 5 cm + 0.333cm= 5.333cm
From here it clear that phone B has a wider screen than phone A.
