In a city there are 11 public and 5 private swimming pools on weekends 6 of the pools are open geogre says the ratio of pools open on weekends to the toltal is 6.11 emma says the ratio of pools open on weekends to the toltal of pools is 6.22

11 + 5 = 16

6 are open out of the 16. 6 : 16 is the ratio. But we can reduce it.

Divide each side by 2

6/2 = 3

16/2 = 8

3 : 8 is the ratio when simplified.

step-by-step explanation:

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
