The class has 14 boys, 12 girls, and one teacher. What is the ratio boys to girls?

Answers

Final answer:

The ratio of boys to girls in the class is 14:12, which simplifies to 7:6.

Explanation:

The ratio of boys to girls in the class is determined by comparing the number of boys to the number of girls.

Given that there are 14 boys and 12 girls, the ratio of boys to girls is:

14 boys : 12 girls

This can be simplified by dividing both numbers by the greatest common divisor, which is 2 in this case.

Hence, the simplified ratio is:

7 boys : 6 girls

using Pythagoras' identity with x as the side to be found, then

x = √(13² - 5² ) = √(169 - 25 ) =√144 = 12


what is the length of the missing side

Answers

Answer:

The answers are:

m = 9   and     n = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

m/15 = n/25 = 12/20

  m/15 = 12/20

  m/15 = 3/5

  5m = 45

  m = 9


  n/25 = 12/20

  n/25 = 3/5

  5n = 75

  n = 15



m = 9 and n = 15

Find the length( l ) of the leg in the large right triangle using Pythagoras' identity

l = √(25² - 20²) = √225 = 15

the outer and inner right triangles are similar hence the ratios of corresponding sides are equal

[tex]\frac{25}{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{15}{m}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{20}{12}[/tex]

using [tex]\frac{25}{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{20}{12}[/tex] (cross-multiply )

20n = 300 ( divide both sides by 20 )

n = 15

using [tex]\frac{15}{m}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{20}{12}[/tex] ( cross-multiply )

20m = 180 ( divide both sides by 20 )

m = 9

A. - sqrt 3 over 2
B. Sqrt 3 over 2
C. - 1/2
D. 1/2

Answers

Answer:

C. -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

7π/6 radians is equivalent to (7π/6)(180°/π) = 210°, a 3rd-quadrant angle whose reference angle is 30°. The sine of angles in the 3rd quadrant is negative.

sin(30°) = 1/2

sin(210°) = -sin(30°) = -1/2

_____

In radians mode, your calculator can tell you this result directly.

C - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

sin(7π / 6 )

note 7π\6 is in the third quadrant where sin is negative

the related acute angle to 7π/6 is 7π/6 - π = π/6

What is m∠DHG? Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

the 2 equations given are vertical angles which mean they would equal the same.

Set the two equations to equal each other to solve for x:

6(x-2) = 3x+30

Simplify the left side:

6x-12 = 3x+30

Add 12 to eac side:

6x = 3x+42

Subtract 3x from each side"

3x = 42

Divide both sides by 3:

X = 42/3

X = 14


Now you know X, replace x with 14 in the equation for DHG:

Your car needs fixing and you have two friends that offered to help. Abe can fix it for $70 per hour with a $130 part, but Gabe can fix it for $80 an hour with a $40 part. If Abe could find the part for only $60 instead of $130, how will this affect your decision?

Answers

In this case we do not know for how long have they worked. But lets assume that they both will fix the car in an hour.

Case 1: Lets talk about Abe first.

Abe will charge $70.00 per hour plus a part which costs $130.00.

Now, the total cost to be paid to Abe to fix the car is [tex]70+130=200[/tex] dollars.

So we will have to pay $200.00 to Abe to fix the car.

Case 2: Lets talk about Gabe now,

Gabe can fix it for $80 an hour and finds the part just for $60.

Now, the total cost to be paid to Gabe to fix the car is [tex]80+40=120[/tex] dollars.

So we will have to pay $120.00 to Gabe.

Considering the two cases above we can ask Gabe to fix our car but there is another case.

Case 3: What if Abe finds a part for $60.00 rather $130.00

In that case, we will have to pay [tex]70+60=130[/tex] dollars in total to Abe.

Now, we need to pay $130.00 to Abe to fix the car.

Still we can see that we need to pay $10.00 less to Gabe so will ask Gabe to fix the car  (since [tex]130-120=10[/tex]).

What is the measure of ∠ A in this quadrilateral?

Answers

Answer:

30°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°. You have 3 angles given, so can find the fourth using that fact. (The double arcs on angles B and C mean those angles are congruent. Same symbols are used to mark same-size angles.)

... 360° = A + B + C + D

... 360° = A + 115° + 115° + 100°

... 360° -330° = A = 30°

g(x) = 2x − 1 h(x) = 1 − g(x) The functions g and h are defined above. What is the value of h(0)?

Answers

Answer:

h(0) is equal to 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we first put 0 in for x in the g(x) equation.

g(x) = 2x - 1

g(0) = 2(0) - 1

g(0) = -1

Now that we have this, we can stick the answer for g(x) into the f(x) equation.

f(x) = 1 - g(x)

f(x) = 1 - -1

f(x) = 1 + 1

f(x) = 2

The value of [tex]h(0)[/tex] is 2.

It is given that,

[tex]g(x)=2x-1[/tex][tex]h(x)=1-g(x)[/tex]

Explanation:

We have,

[tex]h(x)=1-g(x)[/tex]

[tex]h(x)=1-(2x-1)[/tex]

[tex]h(x)=1-2x+1[/tex]

[tex]h(x)=2-2x[/tex]

Substitute [tex]x=0[/tex] in the above function.

[tex]h(0)=2-2(0)[/tex]

[tex]h(0)=2-0[/tex]

[tex]h(0)=2[/tex]

Thus, the value of [tex]h(0)[/tex] is 2.

Answers

Answer:

x = 126

Step-by-step explanation:

Square both sides of the equation. (sqrt2x+4)^2 = 16^2

2x+4 = 256

Then you should solve for x. (First Subtract 4 from both sides; Then simplify; Next divide both sides by 2; Finally, simplify once more)

This should give you your answer. (x = 126)

Hope this helps! ^-^

Answer:

x = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt {2x} +4 = 16

sqrt {2x} = 12

2x = 12 ^ 2

x = 144/2

x = 72

If you wanted to write:

sqrt {2x + 4} = 16

2x + 4 = 16 ^ 2

2x + 4 = 256

2x = 252

x = 252/2

x = 126

Answers

15√2

area = s² = 450 ← s is length of side

to find s take the square root of both sides

s = [tex]\sqrt{450}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{2(9)(25)}[/tex]

  = √2 × √9 × √25 = √2 × 3 × 5 = 15√2


15√2 represents a side length of a square that has an area of 450 square inches.

The answer is option A.

How to find the side length of a square?

The area of any quadrilateral can be determined by multiplying the length of its base by its height.

area = s² = 450 ← s is length of side

to find s take the square root of both sides

s =  √450 = √2(9)(25)

= √2 × √9 × √25 = √2 × 3 × 5 = 15√2

Since we know the shape here is square, we know that all sides are of equal length. From this, we can work backward by taking the square root of the area to find the length of one side.

Raj tried to solve the system below.

9x-y=15
2x+8y=28

Raj’s Work

9x - y = 15 2x + 8y(15 + 9x) = 28 9(-46/37) - y = 15
-y = 15 - 9x 2x + 120 + 72x = 28 -414/37 - y = 15
y = -15 + 9x 74x + 120 = 28 y = 969/37
74x = -92
x = -46/37

What error did Raj make?
A) Rag forgot to multiply the value of x by 9 when solving for the value of y.
B) When Raj solved for the value of x, he subtracted 120 from both sides.
C) Raj forgot the negative when substituting –15 + 9x for y.
D) Raj found the value of –y instead of y.

Answers

Answer: Option C) Raj forgot the negative when substituting -15+9x for y.


Solution:

(1) 9x-y=15

(2) 2x+8y=28

Isolating y in the first equation. Subtracting 9x both sides of the equation:

(1) 9x-y-9x=15-9x

Subtracting:

(1) -y=15-9x

Multiplying both sides of the equation by -1:

(1) (-1)(-y)=(-1)(15-9x)

(1) y=-15+9x

Then Raj found the value of y. It's not option D.

Substitutng y by -15+9x in the second equation:

(2) 2x+8(-15+9x)=28

Then option C) is the answer: Raj forgot the negative when substituting -15+9x for y.

Eliminating the parentheses applying the distributive property in the multiplication:

(2) 2x-120+72x=28

Adding similar terms:

(2) 74x-120=28

Solving for x. Adding 120 both sides of the equation:

(2) 74x-120+120=28+120

Adding:

(2) 74x=148

Dividing both sides of the equation by 74:

(2) 74x/74=148/74

Dividing:

(2) x=2

Solving for y: Replacing x by 2 in the first equation:

(1) y=-15+9x

(1) y=-15+9(2)

Multiplying:

(1) y=-15+18

Subtracting:

(1) y=3

what does 2 3/5 divided by 1 1/25 equal

Answers

Alright, so let's make 2 3/5 into an improper fraction.

2 x 5 = 10 + 3 = 13

So 13/5 / 11/25.

Keep, change, flip rule: 13/5 x 25/11.

Now you multiple the numerator and denominator from both fractions. (I'm not going to do the math for you. Hope this helped and sorry if my explanation is...yeah.)


The division of 2 3/5 by 1 1/25 is equal to 2.5.

To perform the division, convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions. 2 3/5 becomes 13/5, and 1 1/25 is 26/25. Now divide the fractions: (13/5) ÷ (26/25) = 13/5 * 25/26 = 325/130 = 2.5.
