Idon’t understand how to solve word problems. answer is not 3/8=21/y

Step-by-step explanation:

3 boys     ->   8 girls     -> 11 students

21 boys   ->   _____     ->  y students

This information is lined up for you to solve for your number of students, y:

Looking vertically you could say the proportion is:

Looking horizontally you could say the proportion is:

There are other ways to write this but this last one I wrote answers your question.

im not sure

step-by-step explanation:

p ÷ r = tan(x)

step-by-step explanation:

given that there is a figure below shows a right triangle: a right triangle is shown with hypotenuse equal to q units and the length of the legs equal to p units and r units.

graph is missing so i will create the graph as per given information.

the angle between the legs having lengths p units and q units is y degrees. the angle between the legs having lengths r units and q units is x degrees.

now we need to find about what is p ÷ r equal to.

so we can use trigonometric ratio tan(x)=[altitude]/[base] to find the value of p ÷ r, because p is the altitude and r is the base.

p ÷ r=tan(x)

hence final answer is p ÷ r=tan(x).
