Question
A school district is forming a committee to discuss plans for the construction of a new high school. Of those invited to join the committee,15 are parents of students,45 are teachers from the current high school, 25% are school and district administrators, and the remaining 6 individuals are students. How many more teachers were invited to join the committee than school and district administrators?
Hint:
Hint:
- Percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
The correct answer is: there are 8 more teachers than district administrators
Explanation:
- We have given in a committee are parents, are teachers, are school and district administrators. And remaining 6 individual are students
- We have to find how many more teachers were invited to join the committee than school and district administrators.
Step 1 of 1:
Let x represent the total number of people in the community.
Of the total 40, are teachers and are district administrators
Therefore, the number of teachers in the community,
number of district administrators
Thus, there are more teachers than district administrators
number of district administrators
Thus, there are 18 - 10 more teachers than district administrators
= 18 - 10
= 8

Solve each inequality and graph the solution :
6x≥-0.3.
Note:
Whenever we use the symbol ≤ or ≥ , we use the endpoint as well. So, we use complete line to graph the solution.

Solve each inequality and graph the solution :
-0.3x<6.
Note:
When we have an inequality with the symbols< or > , we use dotted lines to graph them. This is because we do not include the end point of the inequality.
