There are 32 turtles in the zoo. The ratio of alligators to turtles is 3:8. How many alligators are in the zoo?

12

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation that can be used to determine the number of turtles in the zoo : number of turtles in the zoo = (ratio of turtles in the zoo / total ratio of alligators and turtles) x total number  alligators and turtles

(8/11) x t = 32

where t = total number  alligators and turtles

t =( 11 x 32) / 8 = 44

total number of alligators = (3/11) x 44 = 12

a second method

The ratio of alligators to turtles is 3:8.

Thus, there are 3/8 = 0.375 as many alligators as turtles

number of alligators = 0.375 x 32 = 12

12

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation that can be used to determine the number of turtles in the zoo : number of turtles in the zoo = (ratio of turtles in the zoo / total ratio of alligators and turtles) x total number  alligators and turtles

(8/11) x t = 32

where t = total number  alligators and turtles

t =( 11 x 32) / 8 = 44

total number of alligators = (3/11) x 44 = 12

a second method

The ratio of alligators to turtles is 3:8.

Thus, there are 3/8 = 0.375 as many alligators as turtles

number of alligators = 0.375 x 32 = 12

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes. 

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

given perimeter: 28cm

length: 9cm

atp,

2(l+w)=p of the reactangle

2(9+x)=28

18+2x=28

2x=28-18

x=10/2

x=5

therefore width is 5 cm
