For every person who has the flu, there are 6 people who have only flu-like symptoms. If a doctor sees 40 patients, determine approximately how many patients you would expect to have only flu-like symptoms.

Approximately 7 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a proportion of x/6 and divide 40 by 6. We get 6.23333...

This is approximately 7 people.

75 tickets have been sold so far.

step-by-step explanation:

in this question it is clearly mentioned that 45 children's tickets have been sold and this number is 60% of the total tickets sold.

now let's assume the total number of tickets sold be x.

then 60% of x = 45

⇒

⇒ x(.6) = 45

by dividing with .6 on both the sides of the equation

⇒ x = 75

therefore 75 tickets have been sold so far.
