At a swimming pool the ratio of those wearing sunscreen to those not wearing sunscreen was 7 to 5. If the number of people not wearing sunscreen was 30, then how many people were wearing sunscreen?

42 people are wearing sunscreen

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

We are given that the ratio of those wearing sunscreen to those not wearing sunscreen was 7 to 5.

i.e 7:5

number of people not wearing sunscreen is 30

let us use part to part method to solve this problem

let the number of people wearing sunscreen be x

so,

7/5= x/30

cross multiply we have

5x=210

divide both sides by 5

x= 210/5

x=42 people are wearing sunscreen

d

step-by-step explanation:

given

y + 3 = - 4(x - 2) ← distribute the parenthesis

y + 3 = - 4x + 8 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y = - 4x + 5 → d
