five states in a country have 4 star hotels. Assume the country has 50 states. (a) what fraction of the states can claim at least one four star hotel? (b) how many states do not have a four star hotel (c) write a fraction of states without a four star hotel

Part A:

Since five states have four-star hotels, only those five states can claim at least one four-star hotel and since there are 50 states, we can write this as 5/50 or 1/10.

Part B:

50 - 5 = 45 states don't have a four-star hotel.

Part C:

45/50 or 9/10 of the states do not have a four-star hotel.

Best of Luck!

first, we define the variables:

x: number of years after 1950

f (x): amount of vinyl sold.

then, with the variables defined, we have:

68594 vinyl records were sold in 1958 > f (8) = 68594

91299 vinyl records were sold in 1961 > f (11) = 91299

38720 vinyl records were sold in 1952 > f (2) = 38720

161743 vinyl records were sold in 1967 > f (17) = 161743

step-by-step explanation:

cross multiplying, we get :

⇒ (3) × (5) = (9) × (x)

⇒ 15 = 9x
