Answer: d) 5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

10 out of 35 of the students are girls. The number of boys is therefore:

= 35 - 10

= 25 boys

Probability that the winner is a boy is:

A. Find an equation in​ point-slope form for the line having the slope m = 6 and containing the points (7,2)
B. Find an equation in​ point-slope form for the line having the slope m=-4 and containing the point ​(​1,9​).

Answers

Answer:

Part A)

An equation in​ point-slope form for the line having the slope m = 6 and containing the point (7,2).

[tex]y - 2 = 6(x-7)[/tex]

Part B)

An equation in​ point-slope form for the line having the slope m = -4 and containing the point (1, 9).

[tex]y - 9 = -4(x-1)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

                                                        Part A)

Given

Slope m = 6

Point (7, 2)

To Determine

Find an equation in​ point-slope form for the line having the slope m = 6 and containing the point (7,2).

Using the point-slope form of the line equation

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

where

m is the slope of the line(x₁, y₁) is the point

In our case:

m = 6(x₁, y₁) = (7, 2)

substituting the values m = 6 and the point (x₁, y₁) = (7, 2) in the point-slope form of line equation

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

[tex]y - 2 = 6(x-7)[/tex]

Therefore, an equation in​ point-slope form for the line having the slope m = 6 and containing the point (7,2).

[tex]y - 2 = 6(x-7)[/tex]

                                                       Part B)

Given

Slope m = -4

Point (1, 9)

To Determine

Find an equation in​ point-slope form for the line having the slope m = -4 and containing the point (1, 9).

Using the point-slope form of the line equation

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

where

m is the slope of the line(x₁, y₁) is the point

In our case:

m = -4(x₁, y₁) = (1, 9)

substituting the values m = -4 and the point (x₁, y₁) = (1, 9) in the point-slope form of line equation

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

[tex]y - 9 = -4(x-1)[/tex]

Therefore, an equation in​ point-slope form for the line having the slope m = -4 and containing the point (1, 9).

[tex]y - 9 = -4(x-1)[/tex]

The answer is:

1) y - 2 = 6(x - 7)

2) y - 9 = -4(x - 1)

Work/explanation:

The point slope formula is:

[tex]\bf{y-y_1=m(x-x_1)}[/tex]

where m = slope;

(x₁, y₁) is a point on the line.

For this problem, m = 6 and the point is (7,2).

Plug in the data:

[tex]\bf{y-2=6(x-7)}[/tex]

__________________

For this problem, m = -4 and the point is (1,9).

Plug in the data:

[tex]\bf{y-9=-4(x-1)}[/tex]

Hence, these are the equations.

Answers

Answer:

x = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Information

One can partition this figure into three different parts, two congruent triangles, and one rectangle. To find the value of x, one has to find the base of the two triangles, and then the base of the rectangle. Since opposite sides are congruent, the base of the rectangles is 10. To find the base of the triangle, one has to use the Pythagorean theorem.

2. Base of the rectangle

Again, opposite sides are congruent, hence the base of the rectangle is equivalent to the top part. Hence the base is 10.

3. Base of the triangle

Use the Pythagorean theorem;

[tex]a^{2}+b^{2} = c^{2}\\a-leg\\b-leg\\c-hypotenuse[/tex]

Substitute in the given value and solve

[tex]a^{2}+15^{2} = 17^{2}\\a^{2} + 225 = 289\\a^{2} = 64\\a = 8[/tex]

4. Finding x

There are two congruent trinagles, hence one has to add the base of the triangle twice. The equation will be

x = base_of_triangle + base_of_rectagle + base_of_triangle

x = 8 + 10 + 8

x = 26

Aimee and Stan work in the same department for a large corporation. They are curious about the proportion of their coworkers who have children. Aimee obtains a list of all the workers in the department, randomly picks 20 names from the list, and asks those coworkers if they have children. She finds that 72% of those surveyed have children. Stan waits in the break room one morning and asks the first 20 coworkers that pass by if they have children. He finds that 85% of those surveyed have children. Which result is the better estimate of the proportion of coworkers who have children?

Neither result is a good estimate.

Clare went to a concession stand that sells pretzels for $3.25, drinks for $1.85, and bags of popcorn for $0.99 each. She bought at least one of each item and spent no more than $10. Could Clare have purchased 2 pretzels, 2 drinks, and 2 bags of popcorn? Explain your reasoning. Check your work with the video when you are ready

Answers

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of each pretzel = $3.25

Price of each drink = $1.85

Price of each bag of popcorn = $0.99

Maximum money to be spent = $10

Price of two pretzels = $3.25 [tex]\times[/tex] 2 = $6.5

Price of two drink = $1.85 [tex]\times[/tex] 2 = $3.70

Price of two bags of popcorn = $0.99 [tex]\times[/tex] 2 = $1.98

Total money spent for buying two items of each type = $6.5 + $3.70 + $1.98 = $12.18

The money spent when 2 pretzels, 2 drinks and 2 bags of popcorn are bought is $12.18.

But maximum money available is $10.

Therefore, Clare would not be able to buy 2 pretzels, 2 drinks and 2 bags of popcorn with the amount of money available.

According to the frequency table there are 30 sudents who like rock in grades 9-10 and 25 students that like rock and are in grades 11-12.

25 ÷ 55 = n ÷ 100          

25 · 100 = 55 · n      

2500 ÷ 55 = n         n  = 45.454545        n = 45%

1. A school has 400 students. They all come to school by bus, and each bus carries the same number of students. How many students might there be on each bus if each hold only 50 children?

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

400 divided by 50 is 8

Answer:50

there are 400 students and a bus can hold 50 so you divide 400 by 50 which is equel to 8

so about 50 kids if all the kids go on the bus

Mr. Silverstone invested some money in 3 different investment products. The investment was as follows:

a. The interest rate of the annuity was 4%.

b. The interest rate of the annuity was 6%.

c. The interest rate of the bond was 5%.

d. The interest earned from all three investments together was $950.

Which linear equation shows interest earned from each investment if the total was $950?

a.) a + b + c = 950
b.) 0.04a + 0.06b + 0.05c = 9.50
c.) 0.04a + 0.06b + 0.05c = 950
d.) 4a + 6b + 5c = 950

Answers

Answer: c.) 0.04a + 0.06b + 0.05c = 950

Step-by-step explanation:

To find interest per investment you need to multiply the percentage interest rate by the value of the investment.

When written in linear equations, percentages are converted to decimal form.

4% = 1/100 = 0.04

6% = 6/100 = 0.06

5% = 5/100 = 0.05

These are the interest rates that when multiplied by their investments, will give a total of $950.

0.04 * a + 0.06 * b + 0.05 * c = 950

0.04a + 0.06b + 0.05c = 950

Option c is therefore correct.

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 10 x + 6 y = − 84 10x+6y=−84.

Answers

Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is written as

y = mx + b where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept.

We put the given equation above in that form

10x + 6y = - 84

6y = -10x - 84

Divide both sides by 6

y = -10x/6 - 84/6

y = -5x/3 - 14

y = -5/3x - 14

The slope of this line is -5/3

But we are told that: the slope of the line is perpendicular to the line

Hence: we find the reciprocal of , -5/3

This is = 3/5

Therefore, the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 10x + 6y = −84 is 3/5
