at a school the number of boys: number of girls = 11 : 9
there are 124 more boys than girls

work out the total number of students at the school

Answers

Answer 1

b = boys

g = girls

[tex]b:g=11:9, b=g+124[/tex]

[tex]b=11g/9[/tex]

Insert in the second equation

[tex]11g/9=g+124[/tex]

Solve for g

[tex]11g=9g+124\cdot9[/tex]

[tex]2g=124\cdot9\implies g=62\cdot9=\boxed{558}[/tex]

Solve for b

[tex]b=g+124=\boxed{682}[/tex]

Hope this helps.

The bottom of a ladder leaning against a wall is 1.5 m from the bottom of the wall. The ladder is 5.5 m long. Find how high the top of the ladder is above the ground, correct to one decimal place.

A. 5.8 m
B. 5.7 m
C. 5.2 m
D. 5.3 m​

Answers

Answer: D.  5.3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder leaning against the wall causes it to forma  right angle.  

The right angle has two sides , which is  the two legs, and the hypotenuse.

Using the formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2 , a  and b are the two legs and c is the hypotenuse. In this case, a will be the wall, b will be 1.5 m  and the ladder which is 5.5 m will be the hypotenuse.  

Input the values for a and c to sole for b using the formula.

1.5^2 + b^2 = 5.5^2

2.25 + b^2 = 30.25

-2.25                 -2.25

   b^2 = 28

   b = [tex]\sqrt{28}[/tex]

  b = 5.2915   rounded to one decimal place is the same as rounding it to the nearest tenth, and 5.29 rounded to the nearest tenth is 5.3.

Height of top of ladder above the ground  that is resting on the wall, correct to one decimal place is 5.3 m

hence option D is correct.

According to Pythagoras theorem

In a right triangle

[tex]\rm H^2 = P^2 + B^2[/tex]

[tex]\rm P = \sqrt {H^2 - B^2 }.........(1)\\where \\H = Hypotenuse \; of \; right\; triangle\\B = Base\; of \; the \; right\; triangle \\P = Perpendicular \; of \; the\; right\; triangle[/tex]

In the given situation the the ladder forms the right triangle with the wall

Length of the ladder = 5.5 m

Length of the base of ladder from the wall = 1.5 m

Let K be the height of top of ladder above the ground  that is resting on the wall.

Hence  from equation (1) we can write

[tex]\rm K = \sqrt{5.5^2 - 1.5^2} = \sqrt{28} = 5.291 \approx \bold{5.3}[/tex]  m

Height of top of ladder above the ground  that is resting on the wall, correct to one decimal place is 5.3 m

hence option D is correct.

19. The marked price of a certain handbag is $400. After two successive
sales, the selling price of the handbag becomes $225. If the discount
per cent in each sale is x%, find the value of x.

Answers

Answer:

x = 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

At the first sale of 25% off, the handbag price dropped from $400 to $300. This is because (400 x 0.25 = 100) and (400 - 100 = 300) Therefore, the selling price of the handbag after one sale was $300.

At the second sale of 25% off, the handbag price dropped from $300 to $225. This is because (300 x 0.25 = 75) and (300 - 75 = 225). Therefore, the selling price of the handbag after two sales is $225.

The value of x remained the same for both sales. x = 25% or 0.25

1. Which of the following lines is parallel to the line y = -3/2x +1 and contains the point (4,2)?

Answers

Answer:

The answer should be y = -[tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex][tex]x[/tex] + 8, but its not one of the answers, so check the question again.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the second line is parallel, then the gradient will be the same:

y = -[tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex][tex]x[/tex] + c

Find what c is (y-intercept) by inputting the given point into the equation (4,2):

2 =  (-[tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x 4) + c

2 = -6 + c

c = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this equation has multiple operations, we need to use the order of operations, aka PEMDAS. It stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, and Addition/Subtraction. First in the order of operations that we have in this equation is multiplication/division. So, we need to divide 9/3 before adding.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point(6,4) and has a slope of -2/3

Answers

Answer:

y=-2/3x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

first, find the y intercept, or b.

write your equation so far: y = -2/3x + b

Now substitute in your given point (6,4)

so now we got: 4 = -2/3(6) + b

which gives you: 4 = -4 + b

Now, we find b.

4 = -4 + b  

+4    +4      < isolating b...

8 = b

now put it back in..

y=-2/3x+b

If ABD = 64, and CBD is 30, we can use PWP( Part Whole Postulate)

Step 1.CBD + ABC = ABD

Step 2. Substitute

30 + ABC = 64

Step 3. Isolate ABC

ABC is 34 degrees

Answer:

  34°

Step-by-step explanation:

It should be fairly intuitive that the two smaller angles add to give the value of the larger one. (Even if it's not, the angle sum theorem tells you this is true.)

  ∠ABC + ∠CBD = ∠ABD

  ∠ABC + 30° = 64°

  ∠ABC = 34° . . . . . . . . . subtract 30° from both sides of the equation

PLEASE HELP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE (THANK YOU VERY MUCH IF YOU DO)

Answers

Answer:In this equation, we can start by understanding that "x" has a value of 8, as given in the ordered pair. When multiplied by 5, this leads to "40 - 2y = 30". Next, we can subtract 40 from both sides of the equation. This leads us to a value of "-2y = -10". The next step would be to divide both sides by -2 as a way of isolating "y", which leads us to a final value of "y = 5". The final ordered pair would be (8,5).
