Swim team members can race or dive. At a meet, 18 members race. The ratio of racers to divers is 6:2. How many meters are on the team? Show your work.

Plz help it due in 10 minutes.

Answer:

6 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion as 18/x=6/2. The meters are unknown, so that's what the x value represents. Then, cross multiply (18 times 2 and 6 times x) to get 36=6x. By dividing both sides of the equation by 6, you'll get 6 meters as your answer.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!! :D

Ok so do I subtract 5 from x and 5 Orr am I solving wrong i don’t know this is confusing.

I need help ASAP!!!!!!!! PLEASE CORRECT ANSWER!
A student writes an incorrect step while checking if the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles of triangle ABC below is equal to the measure of the exterior angle.

A triangle ABC is shown. The base of the triangle extends into a straight line. The angle formed between this straight line and the edge of the triangle is marked as w. The angle adjacent to w is marked as z, and the other two angles inside the triangle are marked as x and y.
Step 1: m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = 180 degrees (sum of angles of a triangle)
Step 2: m∠w − m∠z = 90 degrees (corresponding angles)
Step 3: Therefore, m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = m∠w + m∠z
Step 4: So, m∠x + m∠y = m∠w

In which step did the student first make a mistake and how can it be corrected? (5 points)

Select one:
a. Step 1; it should be m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = 180 degrees (sum of corresponding angles)
b. Step 2; it should be m∠w + m∠z = 180 degrees (supplementary angles)
c. Step 1; it should be m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = 90 degrees (corresponding angles)
d. Step 2; it should be m∠w + m∠z = 90 degrees (alternate exterior angle)

help! Container ships sail all over the world to deliver cargo from port to port. Even though such ships can
weigh as much as 400,000 tons, they stay afloat because of the buoyant force exerted on them by the
water.
Below is a diagram of a container ship floating in the water. Its weight is represented by a downward
arrow and a negative number because the weight exerts a downward force on the boat. The buoyant
force of the water balances out the weight of the ship, so the ship can float. Describe an arrow that
would represent the buoyant force. What value should be associated with this arrow? Explain how this
situation relates to the concept of combining a number with its additive inverse.
