Keeping track of skiers and snowboarders who bought season passes. The ratio of number of skiers who bought season passes to the number of snowboard ers who bought season passes is 1:2 if 1,250 more snowboarders bought season passes than skiers how many skiers how many snowboarders and manyskiers bought season passes
What the ansewer
This doesn’t help me at all
I read these and none of these help, They need to be more specific about the problem
Please help me I think the awnser is 2,500 correct me if you can pls🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This stuff is dumb
To solve this problem, let's assign variables to the unknown quantities. Let's say the number of skiers who bought season passes is S, and the number of snowboarders who bought season passes is B.
According to the given information, the ratio of skiers to snowboarders who bought season passes is 1:2. This means that S/B = 1/2.
We also know that 1,250 more snowboarders bought season passes than skiers. In other words, B = S + 1,250.
Now we can use this information to solve for the number of skiers and snowboarders who bought season passes.
Substituting the second equation into the first equation, we have:
S / (S + 1,250) = 1/2
To solve this equation, we can cross-multiply:
2S = S + 1,250
Solving for S:
2S - S = 1,250
S = 1,250
So, the number of skiers who bought season passes is 1,250.
Substituting this value back into the equation B = S + 1,250, we can find the number of snowboarders who bought season passes:
B = 1,250 + 1,250
B = 2,500
Therefore, the number of snowboarders who bought season passes is 2,500.
To summarize:
- The number of skiers who bought season passes is 1,250.
- The number of snowboarders who bought season passes is 2,500.
number of skiers --- x
number of boarders ---- 2x , notice x : 2x = 1 : 2
2x - x = 1250
